"After losing my job, I thought I would bounce back quickly. But weeks turned into months, and I couldn’t sleep, felt irritable all the time, and avoided friends. Later, when I survived a car accident, the nightmares and flashbacks made it even harder. I couldn’t explain why I was always on edge, why small things triggered so much fear. My life felt stuck between the past and the present."
Life changes and traumatic events affect everyone differently. For some, stress may cause temporary emotional and behavioral difficulties (Adjustment Disorders). For others, trauma may leave lasting scars, leading to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) — with flashbacks, nightmares, and avoidance behaviors. These conditions are not signs of weakness, but natural responses when the mind and body are overwhelmed. With the right care, recovery is possible.
Signs to Watch For
Persistent sadness, anxiety, or mood swings after a stressful event
Avoidance of reminders of trauma (places, people, situations)
Nightmares or flashbacks that feel real
Hypervigilance — always feeling “on guard”
Difficulty concentrating, sleeping, or managing daily responsibilities
Withdrawal from relationships and activities once enjoyed
