They are the outcomes of sudden exposure to severe or extreme Stressors . Some victims whose life or body have been directly and unequivocally threatened by an abuser react by developing these syndromes. PTSD is, therefore, associated with the aftermath of physical abuse in both children and adults."

Our Spectrum of Services
Most PTSD victims are especially vulnerable on the anniversaries of their recent abuse. They try to avoid thoughts, feelings, conversations, activities, situations, or people who remind them of the traumatic occurrence ("triggers").
Testimonial

Many develop full-scale phobias (agoraphobia, claustrophobia, fear of heights, aversion to specific animals, objects, modes of transportation, neighbourhoods, buildings, occupations, weather, and so on)
