National Alliance on Mental Illness discussion – Trauma in everyday life and coping with triggers

March 29, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

The Sussex County affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) will host a free, online presentation called “Trauma in Everyday Life” on Monday, March 29, 2021 from 7:00pm until 8:30pm.

Psychologist Linda Busch’s presentation will focus on the impact of trauma in everyday life as well as trauma disorders such as PTSD, acute stress disorder, and what is now being unofficially referred to as chronic stress disorder or covid-related stress disorder. The impact of trauma on those already affected by serious mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder, depression, and schizophrenia and their loved ones or caregivers will be discussed.

The presentation will also cover how to cope with triggers or symptoms, medications that are sometimes used in the treatment of trauma, and how to lessen the impact of traumatic events. Participants will be invited, if they wish, to practice trauma-reducing exercises, to share insights and to ask questions.
