Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - PTSD, "Invisible Wounds"
There’s a common misconception about post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) – that it only affects military personnel. This is simply not true!
We all experience perceived or real threats in life. These experiences can cause PTSD, anxiety, stress, alcohol/chemical dependency, sexual abuse, porn addiction and more. During a traumatic event, the brain, along with the nervous system changes into “fight or flight mode.” When you are suffering your brain can actually remain in either fight or flight mode – and you may have a very difficult time returning back to a normal state. These symptoms may make it hard (at best) or impossible to continue with everyday living.
In the United States there are approximately 10 million people who suffer from PTSD at some point in their lives (essentially 8%).
You may experience the following signs/symptoms of PTSD.
- Mental or physical discomfort
- Flashbacks – repeating the event
- Nightmares
- Impossible to remember the event
- Avoiding places, people, or objects which may trigger you
- Feeling tense, being easily startled, trouble sleeping
- Depression, worry, guilt, emotional numbness
- You no longer enjoy activities
