Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It involves a range of symptoms that persist beyond the traumatic event and significantly impact daily functioning. At Kibun Health, we understand the challenges faced by individuals with PTSD and offer comprehensive support to help them manage their symptoms and find healing.

Symptoms

PTSD symptoms can be categorized into four main clusters:

Intrusive Thoughts and Memories:
- Recurrent distressing memories, flashbacks, or nightmares related to the traumatic event
- Intense psychological or physiological distress when exposed to reminders of the trauma
Avoidance:
- Avoiding places, activities, or people associated with the trauma
- Efforts to avoid thoughts, feelings, or conversations related to the traumatic event
Negative Mood and Thoughts:
- Persistent negative emotions, such as fear, guilt, shame, or anger
- Negative beliefs or expectations about oneself, others, or the world
- Feeling emotionally numb or detached from others
Hyperarousal and Reactivity:
- Hypervigilance, always being on guard, or easily startled
- Difficulty sleeping, irritability, or angry outbursts
- Problems with concentration, memory, or experiencing a sense of disorientation

Types of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Acute Stress Disorder (ASD)

ASD refers to the initial development of PTSD symptoms within one month after exposure to a traumatic event. If symptoms persist beyond one month, the diagnosis may be changed to PTSD.

Complex PTSD (C-PTSD)

Complex PTSD typically arises from repeated or prolonged traumatic experiences, such as childhood abuse, neglect, or long-term captivity. It is characterized by a broader range of symptoms, including difficulties with emotional regulation, self-perception, and interpersonal relationships.

Delayed-Onset PTSD

Delayed-Onset PTSD occurs when symptoms manifest several months or even years after the traumatic event. This delay in symptom onset can make it challenging to link the symptoms to the original traumatic experience.

Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS)

STS, also known as vicarious trauma, can affect individuals who are frequently exposed to the trauma of others, such as healthcare professionals, first responders, or individuals in helping professions. These individuals may develop symptoms similar to PTSD due to the cumulative impact of witnessing traumatic events.
