June 27 is PTSD Awareness Day, an opportunity to educate the public on the lasting neurological effects of trauma.

PTSD doesn’t just affect your mind—it changes your brain. Neuroimaging shows that PTSD impacts:

  • The amygdala, increasing fear response

  • The hippocampus, impairing memory processing

  • The prefrontal cortex, reducing impulse and emotion regulation

This means people with PTSD often feel hyper-alert, anxious, and emotionally overwhelmed. Traditional treatments include therapy and medication, but emerging options like TMS therapy are offering new hope.

TMS targets areas of the brain affected by PTSD, promoting balance and rewiring through non-invasive magnetic stimulation.

If you or a loved one is struggling, you’re not alone—and healing is possible.
