We’re pleased to invite you to our upcoming webinar: “National PTSD Awareness Day” ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’™ 

This important session aims to raise awareness about Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), a topic that often goes unspoken but impacts so many. 

post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health problem you may develop after experiencing traumatic events. The condition was first recognised in war veterans. It has had different names in the past, such as 'shell shock', but it's not only diagnosed in soldiers. A wide range of traumatic experiences can be causes of PTSD.
