Self-help Aotearoa edition. A simple self check and some ideas of how to and where to look for advice or help. PTSD is acquired from a lived experience – a real or perceived threat of danger, which may involve a possible loss of life. This is an important distinction over other mental health conditions. Up to 75% of us will experience an event that could trigger PTSD, 6% of us will develop symptoms of PTSD during our lifetime. It is most common amongst women (who are at twice the risk of experiencing PTSD), indigenous communities, refugees, military & veterans, first responders, victims of violent crimes and those who have experienced natural or man-made disaster.
