What is PTSD?

  

It is quite common to associate Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (hereinafter PTSD) with war veterans returning home from combat. Recently, however, science is bringing to light the prevalence of PTSD resulting from non-combat situations.

At Inspiring Hope International, we want to remind you that you are the master of your own brain and body. What you define as trauma is your trauma, and no two definitions of trauma look the same. We want you to know you are not alone and there is help here for you.

The American Psychiatric Association defines PTSD as “a psychiatric disorder that can occur in people who have experienced or witness a traumatic event” (APA, 2020). PTSD can present itself through reexperiencing trauma here and now, avoidance of traumatic reminders, hypervigilance resulting from a persistent sense of impending threat (Mind, 2017). 

While these are the most well-known presentations of PTSD, there is a spectrum of symptoms that may be present. If you struggle with any of the following symptoms, you may be unknowingly suffering from PTSD. 

· Have an ongoing distrust of people and the world 

· Difficulty regulating your emotions

· A continuous feeling of emptiness

· Feeling as if you are completely different from other people

· Finding friendships and relationships difficult, or avoiding them altogether (Mind, 2017).

The World Health Organization (hereinafter WHO) recently introduced two distinct trauma-related disorders in its 11thpublication of the International Classification of Diseases, or ICD-11. Under the general category of ‘disorders specifically associated with stress,’ the WHO outlines PTSD as well as complex PTSD, or CPTSD (Haselgruber et al., 2020). 

PTSD and/or CPTSD can be caused by a singular traumatic event, but it is important to remember that singular events are not the only causes. Being harmed by someone close to you at an early age, experiencing ongoing trauma of any kind (physical, emotional, sexual), or repeatedly witnessing abuse can all surface as PTSD (Mind, 2020). 

If you think you may be suffering from PTSD, there is hope and there is help. We are here to help you connect with effective treatments, financial help, and others who may be feeling the same as you.

 My passion for mental health comes out of my own experience with depression.  Knowing what I went through, and seeing what other family members have gone through, I want to be a part of educating the public, tearing down stereotypes, and making help more prevalent and attainable.
