Trauma and PTSD

Family Education Video Series - Trauma and PTSD

Individuals can develop trauma after a singular or repeated distressing event. Trauma can stem from accidents, natural disasters, abuse, combat, or other violent events. Left untreated, this can have a lasting impact on mental health, and lead to PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). PTSD symptoms can include hypervigilance, nightmares and difficulty trusting others.
