Trauma is an emotional response to a distressing or disturbing event that overwhelms an individual’s ability to cope. It can leave deep wounds that affect every aspect of life:

• Mental: Intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, nightmares, difficulty concentrating, and anxiety are common mental health struggles following a traumatic experience.
• Behavioral: Changes in behavior, such as avoidance of certain places or activities, hypervigilance, and difficulty trusting others, can emerge as individuals try to protect themselves from further harm.
• Emotional: Numbness, emotional detachment, guilt, shame, and anger are frequent emotional responses to trauma. These emotions can create barriers to connecting with loved ones and enjoying life.
• Physical: Physical symptoms like headaches, stomachaches, fatigue, and difficulty sleeping can arise due to the body’s stress response to trauma.
• Spiritual: Trauma can shake an individual’s sense of meaning, purpose, and connection to something larger than themselves. This can lead to feelings of isolation, despair, and questioning one’s beliefs.
