- If you've gone through a traumatic event there is no one right way to cope. Hear from JED Expert Asha Alexander as she explains symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), triggers, and treatments for coping with traumatic events and PTSD. Asha shares that healing takes time and the best way to process your feelings is by seeking out professional help.
Treatment for PTSD can look like going to individual or group therapy, or using therapeutic tools such as Eye Movement Desentization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR uses light, sound, and your therapist as a guide to help you process traumatic memories. Another tool used in managing PTSD is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is a type of therapy focused on changing unhelpful thinking patterns that you may have developed from your traumatic experiences.
Healing is possible for everyone with time and care, so trust yourself and the process, and believe that you deserve to live a happy and healthy life. If you believe you may be experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), consider reaching out to family, friends, or a professional for support. Learn more about PTSD: jedfoundation....
