Are you suffering in silence from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder? PTSD can have a debilitating effect on your life, making it hard to cope with day-to-day activities. But you don’t have to suffer alone. There is PTSD support available in Chester.
Our peer support groups provide a safe and supportive environment for people with PTSD to share their experiences and gain valuable insights from others who have been through similar experiences.
We also offer one-to-one services, including active listening, for people who feel they would benefit from more personal support.
How PTSD Can Affect Your Day-to-Day Existence
While PTSD can affect people differently, some common symptoms can make everyday life a struggle. These include:
- Avoidance of people, places and situations that trigger memories of the trauma
- Intrusive thoughts and flashbacks
- Nightmares
- Difficulty sleeping
- Feeling on edge or irritable all the time
- Angry outbursts
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, know that you are not alone and that help and support is available to you should you need it.
