Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after a traumatic event, such as combat, natural disaster, sexual assault, abuse, or the sudden loss of a loved one. You don't need to personally witness or experience a traumatic experience to develop PTSD; it can develop after hearing that a close friend or family member has experienced trauma as well.
PTSD affects millions of people and can lead to intense emotional and physical distress. Common symptoms of PTSD include:
When left untreated, the effects of trauma can seriously disrupt your life and your relationships. If you have concerns about PTSD, a mental health care provider on Sesame can help. During your telehealth visit, your provider will review your health history and can help determine if your symptoms are a result of PTSD. They can also recommend the best treatment options for your well-being, which may include in-person or online therapy, psychiatry, medication, or a combination of these approaches.
