INTRODUCTION
Nearly everyone is touched by some type of trauma in their lives. It is unavoidable because life has its ups and downs and no matter the age of the person, disturbances occur, and suffering follows. However, what we do with that pain, the way we use it or express it, is a determining factor and indication of whether or not we will be able to deal with our thoughts and feelings in a healthy way or seek outside help.
It is completely normal to feel depressed and anxious after experiencing trauma especially when upsetting memories and thoughts linger and seem to replay like a haunting video.
