You\u2019re Not Alone"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mental distress caused by a car or truck accident is not uncommon, and yet, admitting that we\u2019re struggling emotionally can be a hard thing for many to do. If you\u2019ve survived a crash, but the trauma still haunts you, you\u2019re not alone. In this blog, our <a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/practice-area\/mobile\/car-accident-lawyers\/\" data-type=\"pmp_practice_area\" data-id=\"20525\">Mobile auto accident lawyers <\/a>have outlined some next steps if you or someone you love is struggling with mental health after a crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mental Health Issues Are Common After Car Accidents<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the United States, an estimated 8 million people struggle with PTSD each year. While that includes a wide variety of people, including soldiers and first responders, many car accident survivors struggle with post-traumatic stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a recent study conducted by British researchers, at least one in three car accident victims will develop PTSD, anxiety, depression, or a phobia a year later. Even seemingly minor crashes can spark significant mental health issues that, when left untreated, can become debilitating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s easy to let caring for your mental health slip through the cracks after an accident; you\u2019re busy going to the doctor, sorting through bills, and recovering from your physical injuries. It\u2019s all a lot to go through and in the process of \u201cpowering through,\u201d we don\u2019t notice when serious mental health issues emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, mental health can be difficult to talk about, and if you\u2019ve never experienced depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), it can be tough to understand what\u2019s happening to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED ARTICLE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/blog\/can-i-get-compensation-for-car-accident-injuries-that-dont-show-up-immediately\/\"><strong>Can I Get Compensation for Car Accident Injuries That Don\u2019t Show Up Immediately?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs You May be Experiencing PTSD After a Crash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a crash, it\u2019s normal to feel a flood of emotions, including shock, grief, anger, confusion, and fear. While some people process these feelings quickly, the emotional trauma of a car accident can contribute to or worsen mental health issues like PTSD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Post-traumatic stress disorder is relatively common after a car crash. According to the American Psychiatric Association\u2019s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), you may have PTSD if you experienced or witnessed serious trauma, such as a violent car or truck wreck, and develop:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nightmares, flashbacks, or unwanted, intrusive memories<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Emotional distress or physical reactions to things that remind you of the crash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoidance of painful memories or anything that can trigger thoughts of the accident, including people, places, or driving<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Difficulty remembering the crash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decreased interest in activities and social isolation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Angry outbursts and a tendency to blame yourself or others<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Irritability<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aggressive, destructive, or risky behavior<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Problems with attention and concentration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Feeling like you\u2019re constantly in danger<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Intense startle responses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Having trouble sleeping<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typically, these symptoms must last for more than a month to qualify as PTSD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re concerned that you may be experiencing PTSD, it\u2019s important to talk to your doctor or a mental health professional who can accurately assess your situation and diagnose your condition. Therapy, medications, and emotional support can help you overcome your accident-related mental health issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mental Health Is Connected to Physical Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s always good to talk about what you\u2019re going through, but there are physical benefits to treating your accident-related mental health conditions as well. Studies show that stress and emotional issues cause or worsen chronic pain. Indeed, in a recent study of people who experienced trauma and PTSD, 30% developed chronic pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mental health treatment can help speed up your physical healing and keep conditions from worsening over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Do if Your Mental Health Issues Persist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are experiencing serious emotional issues after a crash, it\u2019s important to acknowledge and address them. Don\u2019t hesitate to reach out to family and friends, or even a support group to talk about what you\u2019re going through. Talk to your doctor about the thoughts you\u2019re having. They can connect you to mental health professionals who can help you improve your quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developing a routine of low-intensity exercise, like walking, can also help your nervous system relax and recover. Seeking counseling or therapy can also help you relieve underlying emotional stress caused by your accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys, we also understand that medical bills, the insurance company\u2019s non-stop letters and phone calls, and financial uncertainty can add unwanted stress. You don\u2019t have to fight that battle alone. Our lawyers can help you get the time and space you need to heal, while fighting for the compensation you deserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED ARTICLE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/blog\/auto-injury-costs\/\"><strong>How to Calculate the Real Cost of Your Car Accident Claim<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mental Pain After a Crash?
