I am a sexual abuse victim as a toddler. I am 60 and I still have cPTSD and need counseling. I cut off all local news to help with depression and anxiety and only read what I choose, yet in the past week there are literally over a dozen new cases with attempted kidnappings, peepers in bathrooms and showers, multiple rapes, CSAM from various religious organizations, and lawsuits going back decades. It seems like a pandemic of predators is happening.
The downvotes are unfair. There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers.
No, such things never go away. People can learn to to better deal with it, they can learn to cope better with the pain, they can learn skills to better handle anxiety/panic, they even can go through lenghty programs to learn to overall feel better.
But these traumas never go away, people can’t escape them. In the best case it is no around-the-clock hindrance anymore. The triggers stay, the nightmares stay. The memories stay.
Reading the mentioned article about ©PTSD might expand your view. Everyone should know, so we wouldn’t throw questions like this at survivors. As they all have, at least, PTSD. And often many illnesses more. Not only psychological.
