The Impacts Of Trauma
Following a traumatic event, the emotional distress experienced can make it difficult to relate to other people. This might mean that a person withdraws from family and friends, stops attending social activities, becomes overprotective, or has difficulty expressing or managing emotions.
Trauma & The Community
Exposure to a traumatic event can occur at any stage of life. What might be a manageable stressful event to one person can be traumatic to another. Psychological problems, such as posttraumatic stress disorder and depression, pose an impact on functional outcomes as well as overall quality of life.
