Abstract in brief

  • Research shows that extreme stress impacts the brain by causing traumatic individuals to have automatic, harmful reactions to sensory cues that remind them of past trauma.
  • Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can impair attention, memory, and the ability to process experiences verbally, making it hard for individuals to stay grounded in the present.
  • Effective treatment should focus on helping individuals tolerate feelings and sensations, control physiological arousal, and develop proactive coping strategies after facing feelings of helplessness.
