Greetings!
Unfortunately, tragedies are all around us. From the horrifying events in Oklahoma this week to the bombings in Boston last month, friends, family members, and fellow Americans are facing challenging times.
There has been a lot in the news the last couple of years about post-9/11 veterans coming home with PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. What many people don't realize is that you don't have to survive a war to be affected by this condition.
Anyone, including children and teenagers, who experiences a traumatic event can develop the disorder and many who do will require treatment to overcome its challenges and obstacles.
When left undiagnosed or untreated, PTSD can cause long-term problems that negatively impact quality of life.
Because of the potential for lasting consequences, read more here to understand what can cause the disorder, what symptoms teenagers with PTSD often experience, and how to get help for the disorder.
May is Mental Health Awareness Month and though we're raising awareness about PTSD, mental disorders of all kinda are prevalent around us. If you know someone who might benefit from our services, please give us a call today so we can help.
Sincerely,
