Trauma-Related Disorders
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) | Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD) | Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID)
Trauma-related disorders are a group of mental health conditions that occur after a traumatic event or events. They can severely impact an individual’s day-to-day life and overall well-being. Trauma-related disorders include post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex post-traumatic stress disorder (c-PTSD), and dissociative identity disorder (DID).
These kinds of conditions can happen after one major event or many traumatic events over a prolonged period of time. A trauma-related condition may manifest a month after an event or several years later. It’s important to note that anyone can have PTSD, cPTSD or DID. Trauma is unique to everyone and can manifest in different ways. If someone has one of these disorders, it doesn’t mean their condition is any more or less severe. All trauma is valid and you deserve care - you can heal.
