PTSD is a mental health condition triggered by witnessing or experiencing trauma. These may include events such as accidents, violence or military combat. People with PTSD may experience a variety of symptoms that disrupt daily life and pose challenges in relationships, careers and physical health. These can include:
PTSD can be acute, manifesting suddenly and often resolving within a few weeks or chronic, developing gradually and lasting for months or years. People can also have complex PTSD, which results from prolonged exposure to severe, repeated trauma. Seeking treatment from qualified professionals can help manage and reduce the impact of PTSD on your life.
PTSD can profoundly influence daily life, affecting mental health, daily functioning and relationships. Your condition might cause you to experience the following:
PTSD can exacerbate or lead to other mental health issues, such as anxiety and isolation. These conditions often co-occur, making recovery challenging. Empathy Health Clinic offers integrated treatment plans that address these issues, promoting holistic mental health recovery.

The strain of PTSD can also affect personal relationships, leading to difficulties in communication and emotional connection.
