It’s likely impacted people in our lives, whether it’s family members, friends or those we know through school or work.

Dr. Lakritz describes what may trigger the beginning of a PTSD diagnosis: “Memories of the event. Dreams or flashbacks. Avoidance of stimuli associated with the trauma.” Those symptoms then change the
