recognizable content, and increased clinginess or fear of being separated from caregivers.

disconnected from their thoughts, feelings, or surroundings, often as a response to overwhelming

trauma.

activated in PTSD, leading to heightened stress responses even in non-threatening situations.

PTSD symptoms by preventing exposure to triggers and the necessary emotional work.




Why might someone with PTSD struggle with feelings of guilt or shame?




✔✔Individuals with PTSD may struggle with guilt or shame due to self-blame or the belief that

they could have done something to prevent the traumatic event, even when it's irrational.




How does PTSD impact an individual's ability to trust others?

particularly if the trauma involved betrayal or harm from another person.
