Accident Claims Helpline- PTSD

After a traumatic experience many people are left suffering with post traumatic stress. As a result they can be very depressed and stressed; some so severely that they cannot sleep due to reoccurring nightmares and flashbacks, in some cases medication is required.

 

Some people can be so badly affected that they cannot go about their everyday tasks and they find it hard to socialise and enjoy life. For these people compensation is available.

 

PTSD is an illness which can sometimes occur after someone has lived through or witnessed a frightening event, such as a serious car accident. PTSD is more common if someone’s life has been threatened.

People can suffer PTSD in many ways such as; Reliving the event, Nightmares and bad memories of the frightening event, Avoiding being in that situation again (eg avoiding car travel), Difficulty in forming close relationships, Being made angrily easily, Guilt (especially if someone else has died), Having trouble sleeping, Tenseness of muscles.

 

Examples of incidents that cause post traumatic stress disorder include an intense road traffic accident or an accident in which a loved one was lost.

 

Many people that serve in the military find that they suffer with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Any of us can have an experience that is overwhelming, frightening, and beyond our control. We could find ourselves in a car crash, or even be the victim of an accident in a public place that wasn’t your fault.

Most people, in time, get over experiences like this without needing help. But for some people traumatic experiences set off a reaction that can last for many months or years. This is called Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. (PTSD)
