Description

The effects of trauma on an individual ripple through every aspect of their life and on the lives of those they are close to. Most of us are so accustomed to hearing media accounts of major disasters such as the Concorde air crash, Dunblane or the Omagh bombing, that we are in danger of forgetting the shocking effects of these events on both the people involved and on the people around them. But traumatic incidents don’t necessarily have to be associated with disasters. Being mugged, experiencing a difficult childbirth, or witnessing a murder or hold-up: all these can also be harrowing ordeals, and can have the same devastating effect on an individual as a large-scale catastrophe.
