PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) is common for those who have witnessed or have been victims of traumatic events such as a motor vehicle collision. Re-living the experience in your mind can cause anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, nightmares, nervousness, and physiological responses like sweating. Common behavioral responses include:

• avoiding places, people, and circumstances that remind you of the traumatic event, for example, avoiding the scene of an automobile accident
• alcohol consumption, particularly common in cases of severe PTSD
• fear, horror, anger, guilt or shame – common reactions to survivors of car accidents when family members have perished (survivor’s guilt).

I urge you to seek help if you need it. Consider talking with a qualified psychological injury lawyer (PTSD injury lawyer). Each case is specific. Your psychological injury lawyer should be able to involve the necessary personal injury experts to help prove your case.
