Trauma and PTSD
Dr Ian Anderson
Psychologist, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered), PhD, MSc, MSc, MSc, MA (Econ), BA (Econ) Hons
Sometimes human beings are faced with truly horrible situations: threat, a fear of death, or witnessing such events. A normal response to these situations is severe psychological disturbance. However, such disturbance usually remits within weeks. Unfortunately for some people the psychological disturbance lasts months, years, and sometimes a lifetime. These disturbances include nightmares, intrusive thoughts, avoidance of situations that resemble the trauma, difficulty relating to other people, withdrawal from social life, and in extreme cases dissociation from reality. The two most common psychological conditions associated with this disturbed response are Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Adjustment Disorder. Psychologists have had more than a hundred years of experience in dealing with these difficulties. In the First World War it was described as shell shock. In the Second World War it was known as combat fatigue. We now know that it is not only those who engage in combat who suffer from these disorders. What we are increasingly understanding is that posttraumatic experiences are a disturbance of memory: the disturbance is that we simply cannot forget the horror we have experienced. Psychologists have developed clear treatment pathways to assist the victims of trauma.

Trauma and PTSD
Ulrike Nau-Debor
Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
It is so important to work on our trauma because healing and reclaiming one's life is possible. Find someone you feel safe with, who is compassionate and gentle. There is often a connection between childhood trauma and PTSD, so it is worthwhile to not only address recent events (if you are seeking help for a recent trauma) but also to explore any possible links to your past.
I sometimes use EFT (tapping) to help clients with their trauma, along with other modalities. One of the challenges can be reconnecting with one's body and starting to feel safe in it again.
If you suffer from flashbacks, it's crucial to process these memories and integrate them into your life story. You can learn different techniques for dealing with flashbacks and the overall anxiety and depression you may be experiencing.
One major aspect of trauma is that it isn't only about what happened, but also what we made it mean about ourselves and the world. What kind of belief systems did we create to make sense of what happened, how others reacted to it, and how we tried to cope with it? We carry these beliefs forward and continue living according to them, potentially harming or limiting ourselves.
This new belief system disconnects us from who we truly are and undermines our authenticity. To me, healing is about reclaiming your authentic self and living freely again.
