Life After Trauma: Understanding PTSD and Recovery

from The Empowering Minds Mental Health™ Podcast · host J. Moore

Jennifer conducted a podcast interview with Simone, an Army veteran and author of "PTSD and What Helped Me," focusing on Simone's experiences with trauma and PTSD following a military sexual assault that went undiagnosed for 10 years. Simone shared her journey from trauma to advocacy, emphasizing that PTSD is treatable and can affect non-combat experiences like sexual assault. She discussed the importance of addressing PTSD through multiple approaches including physical exercise, therapy, and journaling, and highlighted that her book and workbook provide practical solutions rather than just personal memoirs. Simone stressed that PTSD doesn't have to control someone's entire life and encouraged survivors to seek help, noting that military sexual trauma is underreported and affects many more people than commonly acknowledged.Website: https://www.ptsdandwhathelpedme.comBook via Amazon: https://a.co/d/0bNASZSP or https://www.ptsdandwhathelpedme.comSocials:https://www.instagram.com/ptsdandwhathelpedmehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/monie-swartz-21a472348https://www.youtube.com/ ⁨@Ptsdandwhathelpedme⁩  https://www.tiktok.com/@PTSDandwhathelpedme
