If the processing of events is no longer possible, but certain symptoms set in, professional treatment is necessary. I would like to say that accepting help from outside is not a disgrace.
Such symptoms may include, but are not limited to:
- Flashbacks (re-experience of the traumatic situation and helplessness),
- Insomnia
- Depressions
- strong feeling of self-hatred and self-rejection,
- self-injurious behaviour (also unintentionally referred to as an “accident”),
- outbursts of anger over insecurities,
- narcissism or complementary narcissism,
- obedience, docility,
- physical “freezing” in case of threat,
- Absences and mind drifts for minutes to hours,
- unbalanced proximity-distance ratio,
- Permanent stress,
- strong feelings of hatred projected onto others,
- procrastination of tasks,
- poor productivity,
- sudden but persistent lack of success,
- Dejection
- lack of drive,
- gratuitous feelings of shame and guilt,
- Drug addiction
- Alcohol abuse
- loss of libido,
- compulsive tidying up and cleaning
be.
