Taster: bloom's "Living with PTSD"
Channel: Chayn Team
Date: 12/08/2020

Bloom is our new free web-based support service run by Chayn. Designed for anyone who is currently experiencing or has experienced domestic and sexual abuse, support is offered via 5 courses. Each one offers tailored tips, tricks, tools, and comforting words to our community. Working through a course will involve learning, reflecting, and processing how what we’ve experienced has affected us - in a safe and empowering space. All of the courses are delivered anonymously, within a group setting, and alongside other survivors via Telegram and WhatsApp.

To give you a taster of how the courses will work, we hosted this webinar around Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, as well as the lesser-known Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (or C-PTSD).

We cover:
* effects of #PTSD
* difference btw PTSD & #CPTSD
* difference btw the para- & sympathetic nervous system
* relaxation techniques & methods to prevent & interrupt triggers
