🧠 PTSD is an extremely distressing condition. Common symptoms include: flashbacks, panic attacks, intrusive thoughts or images, poor sleep, nightmares, unpleasant physical sensations (a tight chest, changes in breathing, sweating, nausea, dizziness, shaking, pain, etc), intense distress triggered by reminders, avoidance behaviours, anxiety, depression, anger, irritability, aggression, feelings of guilt, difficulty concentrating, remembering and making decisions, and emotional numbness. It can sometimes lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms such as misuse of alcohol or drugs and self-harming.

This week is Men's Health Week, which had a focus on mental health. Even before the pandemic men's mental health was a cause for concern. Men are much more likely than women to die from su***de and are less likely to seek treatment for depression, anxiety and other mental health challenges.

The lockdowns and uncertainties that have accompanied the pandemic have exacerbated this issue and as we emerge from what we hope will be the worst of it, many men and boys are struggling with anxiety and are finding it very hard to readjust to life getting back to more 'normal'.

If you're finding things difficult, remember that you're not alone and support is available to help you regain your confidence and move forward. Things will get better.

Let's all take care of the men in our lives!

If you’re struggling to adjust to life after lockdown, you’re certainly not alone. Thankfully there are lots of simple tools that can help you deal with stress and reduce anxiety.

After a year of anxiety, anger, and burnout, many people are struggling with returning to pre-pandemic behaviors. Experts weigh in on ways to work through the trauma.

🧠 Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is essentially a memory processing error caused by a traumatic experience. It can affect anyone who has been exposed, whether they are a survivor, a witness, someone who has only heard about the event and imagined what happened, or even a perpetrator. It can develop immediately after the traumatic event or it may take weeks, months or even years to become apparent. It can often continue for many decades if left untreated.

Not everyone who is exposed to a traumatic event will develop PTSD but for those who do, the impact can be devastating. The involuntary recall of the trauma can be very distressing and is associated with avoidance behaviours, hyper-arousal and emotional numbing. It can affect relationships and impair the person's ability to function and carry out normal everyday tasks.

This week is , with the theme of . Being in nature has been shown to improve our mental health.

Nature is all around us. It might be a garden, a local park or open countryside but even in cities you can find places like community gardens to explore. Look out for nature even where you may not expect to find it. Maybe you’ll notice an urban fox on your way to work, birds nesting in a gutter, flowers opening up, or just changes in the weather. Nature can have a calming effect on us and help put things in perspective.

Rewind Trauma Therapy is my preferred method for treating PTSD and C-PTSD for several reasons, including the following:

🧠 It can stop the distressing involuntary recall and associated sensations permanently and rapidly - often in just one or two sessions for single traumas. This not only minimises the time spent suffering or in therapy but also reduces treatment costs significantly.

🧠 No details of the traumatic event need to be disclosed to the therapist. This makes it an ideal option for people who cannot or do not want to talk about what happened.

🧠 It can restore normal functioning and eliminate the need for avoidance behaviours so that the affected person can once again interact, work, drive, etc as easily as they could before the trauma occurred.

🧠 It has a very high rate of success.
