Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a traumatic, scary or dangerous event. PTSD can be caused by either witnessing or experiencing the trauma. Events that sometimes trigger PTSD include everything from sexual assault, war, and violence, to car accidents or other incidents that could cause loss of life. It is not at all uncommon for people who go through something traumatic to have temporary difficulty coping and acute symptoms, but with time, they usually get better. However, if the symptoms last longer than a month, get worse rather than better and affect your ability to function, you may be suffering from PTSD. Symptoms of PTSD may include severe anxiety, anger, nightmares, trouble sleeping, flashbacks to the event, frightening thoughts, avoidance of situations or places, feeling on edge and/or being easily startled. If you think you may be experiencing PTSD, reach out to one of TherapyDen’s specialists today to get help.
Life can be overwhelming. You may feel stuck, alone or unable to achieve your goals. You may have tried various things to dislodge this fear from taking hold. Fear of being stuck in a cycle of being constantly overwhelmed by your emotions. Fear that you are alone and no one understands what you are going through. But things don’t have to be this way! With the right help you will find that profound change is possible and that you can be free of this weight on top of you.

We often think of PTSD has something that 'other' people are diagnosed with but not, you know, 'regular' people...or so we think. Most people have had traumatic events in their lifetimes but for some, the impact is both far reaching and deeply set into their psyche ~ and that's not their fault. The coping tools used to initially manage the impact of the event might not work over time ~ and that's when people seek help. I also work with Complex PTSD, trauma which often starts at a younger age.
