About PTSD
PTSD affects approximately 3.5% of U.S. adults annually and is particularly prevalent among veterans, first responders, and survivors of abuse or accidents. Symptoms include re-experiencing trauma through flashbacks or nightmares, avoidance of trauma reminders, negative mood, and hyperarousal. Evidence-based treatments include Prolonged Exposure (PE), EMDR, and medication with SSRIs or SNRIs.
Learn about ptsd treatment and ask whether the available care is appropriate for your needs. Confirm your plan's benefits for the proposed service.
