Don't suffer from trauma and PTSD any longer

Trauma and PTSD can have a lasting impact on your mental and physical health. If you're struggling to cope, it's important to seek professional help. Without help, you may struggle to think clearly, feel safe, or manage your emotions, and you're at a greater risk of substance abuse, anxiety, and depression.

 

Types of trauma and PTSD

Trauma and PTSD can come in many different forms. The following are some of the most frequent psychological responses to trauma:

  • A condition that can occur after a person experiences or witnesses a traumatic event. Symptoms include reliving the event, avoidance of anything that reminds you of the event, negative changes in mood and thinking, and increased anxiety and hyperarousal. t involves the same kinds of symptoms as PTSD, but they don't last as long.

  • A mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying event — either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares, and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event.

    People with PTSD often experience some or all of the symptoms for more than one month after a traumatic event.

  • Collective trauma is the exposure to a traumatic event that affects a group of people. It can happen when natural disasters, mass shootings, or other events occur.

    People who experience collective trauma may have symptoms of PTSD, as well as feelings of guilt, powerlessness, and isolation.

  • A condition that can occur when a person experiences prolonged or repeated trauma, such as from domestic violence, childhood abuse, or being held captive.

    Symptoms include all the symptoms of PTSD, plus negative changes in self-image, problems with managing emotions and behaviors and feeling chronically damaged.

  • A condition that can occur when a person experiences trauma and has dissociative symptoms, such as dissociative amnesia or depersonalization.

    Dissociative amnesia is when a person can't remember some or all of the details of the traumatic event.

    Depersonalization is when a person feels detached from their body or they see themselves from outside of their body.

  • A condition that can occur when a person has PTSD and another mental health condition, such as depression, anxiety, or substance abuse. This type of PTSD is very common.

  • A condition that can occur when a person has been exposed to the trauma of war. Symptoms include all the symptoms of PTSD, plus survivor's guilt, feeling disconnected from others, and anger.
