PTSD

Recognize Survivor’s Guilt

March 4, 2022BlogRostyslav Shemechko

Survivors guilt is a particular kind of guilt that develops in people who have survived a life-threatening situation. Some survivors feel guilty that they survived when others died. Others believe they could have done more to save the lives of others. And then there are those who feel guilty that another person died saving them.

Survivor’s guilt is a symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The most common psychological symptoms include:
๐Ÿ˜ feelings of helplessness,
๐Ÿ˜ flashbacks of the traumatic event,
๐Ÿ˜ irritability,
๐Ÿ˜ lack of motivation,
๐Ÿ˜ mood swings and angry outbursts,
๐Ÿ˜ obsessive thoughts about the event,
๐Ÿ˜ suicidal thoughts.

Common physical symptoms can include:
๐Ÿ˜ appetite changes,
๐Ÿ˜ difficulty sleeping,
๐Ÿ˜ headaches,
๐Ÿ˜ nausea or stomachache,
๐Ÿ˜ racing heart.

The next post will be about coping strategies. Stay tuned or schedule an appointment with Rostyslav Shemechko at 647-866-9061 or here. Free psychological assistance during the war in Ukraine is available.
