PTSD Awareness

Post-traumatic stress disorder is more common than many people think, affecting all age groups with increased rates among people with occupations that expose them to trauma such as nurses, police officers, and firefighters. The highest rates of PTSD are found in people who have survived sexual assault, military members who have been in combat, and those who have survived genocide, but anyone who has experienced trauma either directly or indirectly may be a victim of PTSD. If that’s you, you’re not alone. Share the fight by wearing teal, the color that represents PTSD awareness.
