Let go of the traumas of the past with our expert PTSD treatment options.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat, natural disasters, terrorist incidents, serious accidents, or violent personal assaults like rape. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, emotional numbing, and recurring memories as well as thoughts of the trauma, an increased startle response, trouble sleeping or concentrating, feeling keyed up (on edge), irritability or outbursts of anger, difficulty feeling emotions such as love and joy, and social withdrawal from friends and family.

People who have experienced trauma are more likely to use substances and develop a substance use disorder. However, the relationship between PTSD and substance use disorders is complex, with some evidence showing that having PTSD can increase the risk of developing a substance use disorder in the wake of trauma.
People with PTSD and co-occurring substance use disorders are at higher risk for suicide than people who have either condition alone. Symptoms associated with these conditions can also be similar, making it difficult to tell whether symptoms are caused by PTSD or by alcohol or drug abuse (or both). Although it’s important to get help for either condition separately, getting treatment for both simultaneously may help reduce symptoms more quickly than if you started with one treatment first then added another later on.
In order for you to receive effective treatment for both conditions—and avoid experiencing adverse side effects associated with taking multiple medications—it’s important that your doctor understands how they relate so he or she can find the best balance between them based on your unique circumstances
There are many who have gone through similar experiences as you, and they’ve found that it’s possible to feel better. You can heal from trauma too, and there are many ways to do so—you can get help for your PTSD treatment program at a specialized behavioral health center in Princeton, New Jersey or through telehealth.
You’re not alone in this journey; many people with similar experiences have been able to recover and heal their lives using methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), or other evidence-based approaches for treating trauma reactions.
Focused on evidence-based therapies and integrated wellness programs, the unique, hybrid approach at CTRLCare Behavioral Health is designed to meet the needs and goals of the individual.
