PTSD
How can Homeopathy help people who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)?
People suffering from PTSD usually have some or more of the following symptoms:
Intrusive recurrent memories from their traumatic incident.
Avoidance to large crowds or places where they may not feel safe and in control.
Constant negative thoughts and reactions from any stimuli that triggers their trauma.
Constant hypervigilance trying to avoid any memory and situation that may trigger their trauma.
PTSD can manifest in many aspects of a person’s health: mentally, emotionally, and physically. When the body is in a constant state of “fight, flight or freeze”, the wear and tear on the body starts to manifest in the body. Every person manifests different sings and symptoms deriving from PTSD.
Homeopathy can help patients suffering with PTSD to address the exhibited signs and symptoms from their root cause, their origin. Some physical signs & symptoms that could manifest from PTSD are thyroid gland issues, adrenal glands problems, high blood pressure, unbalanced sugar levels, and more.
