It’s incredible. When I researched resources for Traumatic Stress and Post Traumatic Stress Disorders, there weren’t many.
An embarrassing shortage, considering the magnitude of need.

The good news is that I found loads of all kinds of different stress disorder support groups online.
This is just a small sampling of different Traumatic Stress and Post Traumatic Stress support groups.
To find more, simply type in your subject and look for forums or support groups.
There’s a wealth of wonderful resources for those who have shared whatever trauma you’ve suffered.
