The American Psychological Association defines trauma as: an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape or natural disaster.
Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical.
Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea.
While these feelings are normal, some people have difficulty moving on with their lives.
