Nazish Jahangir is a professional therapist as well, however it did not help her overcome her own psychological battles. She also said that she keeps having recurrent incidents of PTSD.<\/p>\n

\n

“Even though after becoming a therapist this is something still on and off with me.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She then went on to explain PTSD, its symptoms and its health effects.<\/p>\n

\n

“Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a serious mental condition that some people develop after a shocking, terrifying, or dangerous event…Your body produces a surge of hormones when you’re in a stressful situation. These hormones temporarily increase your blood pressure by causing your heart to beat faster and your blood vessels to narrow. Many people are unaware that untreated post-traumatic stress disorder can have a devastating effect for both those who have the condition and their loved ones.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\n

“PTSD affects people of all ages. It can even impact the health of unborn babies when the mother is under constant stress.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Like Nazish Jahangir said, ‘there is no timestamp to overcoming trauma.’ Everybody has a different story and everybody has varying responses of how they cope with their trauma.<\/p>\n

\n

“There isn’t a formula that you can insert yourself into to get from horror to healed. Be patient. Take up space. Let your journey be the balm.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
