Neurotherapist Savannah JG and acupuncturist Margie Wesley will host Managing Reaction, a recurring workshop beginning Feb. 22 for people with post-traumatic stress disorder and their friends and family.
“PTSD is something that affects not only the person who has PTSD, but everyone involved,” JG said.
She said mild symptoms can include avoidance of places or things, insomnia and irritability, flashbacks, anger, violence, and paranoia.
