Do I Have PTSD?

Understanding clinical trauma and taking the first step toward getting evaluated by licensed mental health professionals.

Addressing a Common Misconception

This is a really common question. One misconception that people hold is that only people who have been in combat get PTSD. This is far from the truth.

Understanding Clinical Trauma

Clinical trauma can arise from a wide variety of life events beyond combat experience, including:

Car Accidents

Experiencing or surviving serious motor vehicle crashes or transport incidents.

Personal Injury or Attack

Suffering physical violence, personal injury, assault, or severe threats to safety.

Fires & Home Invasions

Living through life-threatening property fires, break-ins, or emergency situations.

Witnessing Violence

Observing traumatic or violent events happening to another individual first-hand.

Abusive Relationships

Enduring prolonged physical, verbal, or psychological abuse within a relationship.

Other Life Events

Any circumscribed event posing a severe threat of death, injury, or physical harm.
