What are symptoms of trauma?
Experiences of trauma may affect our mental, emotional, and physical health. Some people have symptoms of trauma without being aware of it. Trauma can manifest in the following symptoms:
- Numbness
- Nightmares and flashbacks
- Dissociations
- Depression and/ or anxiety
- Overwhelming emotions
- Social isolation
- Avoidance of certain situations
Adverse childhood experiences can also have a trauma-like impact.
We know how difficult it is to go through this.
