During the First World War (1914-1918), the warfighters developed a condition called "shell shock" (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), which is the result of prolonged exposure to combat. These veterans tend to "relive" the conflict, and are triggered by the slightest of provocation due to unprocessed trauma. Incidentally, pre-industrial societies like the early Greeks, and some Native American tribes hosted "purification" or "intensification" rituals for its warriors before they rejoined their families at the end of conflict.
