There is a misconception that PTSD is
something that just affects soldiers or first responders, this isn't the case,
it can affect anyone who has experienced or witnessed something traumatic.
That could be:-
đ A serious accident or injury
đ Caring for a child who is seriously ill
đ Physical or emotional abuse
đ Grief, loss, or unexpected life change
đ Ongoing stress or violence
The symptoms donât always show up right away, and
often people try to carry on as if everythingâs fine, believing themselves,
that they will "get over it, and feel better soon" while struggling
with flashbacks, sleep problems, anxiety, or a constant feeling of being âon
edge.â
But PTSD doesnât make you weak, Itâs a natural
response to overwhelming experience, and most importantly, itâs treatable.
At Someone To Talk To, we support people every day
who are living with the aftershocks of trauma.
Our professionals offer safe, confidential space
to talk, process, and begin the journey to healing, without judgment and at
your own pace.
If this sounds familiar, for you or someone you
care about, please know, you donât have to go through it alone.đ«¶
