PTSD awareness

PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) awareness involves understanding that it’s a serious mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing traumatic events, such as accidents, violence, or disasters. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares, hypervigilance, and emotional numbness. Awareness helps reduce stigma, promotes early recognition, and encourages those affected to seek support and treatment. Understanding PTSD fosters compassion and emphasizes that recovery is possible with appropriate help, highlighting the importance of a supportive environment and professional care to manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
