Three Signs of PTSD

Hyperarousal

Individuals with trauma often exhibit hyperarousal, which includes being easily startled, feeling tense or "on edge," and having difficulty sleeping.

Emotional Exhaustion

It's the feeling of being emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and fatigued. This exhaustion can make it difficult to cope with everyday situations.

Intrusive Thoughts

Frequent, involuntary, and distressing recollections of the traumatic event are common in trauma. These intrusive thoughts can come in the form of flashbacks or nightmares.
