Avoid Avoidance of Trauma

Do not pretend trauma did not happen or that treatment is unnecessary; avoidance worsens PTSD and can lead to complications like substance abuse and self-injury.

1 / 1

“PTSD feeds on avoidance. If we pretend that something didn't happen, if we pretend that it will go away, if we pretend that treatment is not necessary, then that's when it gets complicated.”
