I will be speaking with Dr. Richard Schulman today, about trauma. The entire month of July is dedicated to mental health on The Doctor Whisperer Facebook/Podcast show. He is part of the incredible team at Alternative Psychiatry and brings incredible value to all of his patients.
Trauma defined below ...according to Psychology Today ...
‘Traumatic experiences often arouse strong, disturbing feelings that may or may not abate on their own. In the immediate aftermath of a traumatic event, it is common to experience shock or denial. A person may undergo a range of emotional reactions, such as fear, anger, guilt, and shame. Feelings of helplessness and vulnerability are also common. Some may experience flashbacks and other signs of PTSD. Traumatic memories fade naturally with time. Persistence of symptoms is a signal that professional help is needed.’
I love the options provided by Richard Schulman, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist on the show.
