For many, surviving any type of trauma is only the beginning of the battle. After the trauma is over, you may be faced with a form of extreme anxiety known as post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD. PTSD can be a devastating disorder, but it is treatable. That is why it is important for those that feel they may be struggling with PTSD to seek help, overcome their challenges, and help make their life feel normal again.

Symptoms of PTSD

PTSD occurs after either long-term severe stress (such as serving in the army), or after a serious traumatic event (such as a car accident or sexual assault). During those events, the body experiences a form of severe stress that “resets” your stress and anxiety baseline. This makes it easy for even a mild stressor to cause severe anxiety that may lead to symptoms including:

Reliving the event.
Experiencing stress/anxiety as severe as the event.
Making you on edge in non-dangerous situations.
Triggering panic attacks.

Some people have night terrors that make it harder to sleep. Others can experience hallucinations that cause them to feel like the event is happening again. PTSD can affect people in many different ways, but one thing they all have in common is that the anxiety causes a severe disruption to their quality of life.
