Trauma & PTSD

Trauma does not always come from a single dramatic event — for many people in Bangladesh it builds quietly through accidents, abuse, sudden loss, medical emergencies, or growing up in an unsafe home. When those experiences keep intruding on everyday life as flashbacks, nightmares, panic or emotional numbness, it may be post-traumatic stress. These articles explain what trauma and PTSD actually look like, why the body holds on to them, and which approaches — from CBT to trauma-focused counselling — genuinely help you recover. Everything here is written in plain language for a Bangladeshi reader, with no judgement and no jargon. If you are carrying something heavy, Chum Wellness connects you with licensed psychologists who work with trauma, online or in Dhaka.
