Beyond FLASHBACKS: What PTSD Feels Like on the Inside

Описание: When most people think about PTSD, they imagine flashbacks, nightmares, or hypervigilance. But for many trauma survivors, the most difficult symptoms aren’t the ones you can see—they’re the internal emotional and cognitive changes that silently shape everyday life. PTSD can alter a person’s beliefs, mood, and sense of connection with others. It can erode self-worth, make the world feel unsafe, and strip once-meaningful experiences of all joy. People living with PTSD may withdraw socially, experience chronic guilt or shame, and lose interest in the things they once loved. Some feel emotionally numb or detached, struggling to connect even with those closest to them. Others feel intense anger, sadness, or self-blame—emotions that persist long after the traumatic event has passed. These symptoms are often misunderstood or overlooked, but they are central to how PTSD affects the brain and behavior. This video sheds light on the lesser-known emotional and psychological consequences of PTSD. It offers insight into how trauma disrupts memory, fuels distorted thoughts, and isolates survivors from support systems. By understanding these unseen aspects, we can reduce stigma, improve support, and encourage healing.
