A member asked:
Is it normal to have ptsd symptoms a year after leaving an abusive marriage when no symptoms were there during the marriage?

Yes: Sometimes symptoms emerge when it is safe enough for them to emerge. Now that you are out of the abusive situation, you are capable of viewing it differently, and you will begin to recognize and be shocked by what you allowed yourself to endure. Though it feels bad, the sense of now being traumatized by something you once tolerated is an indication that you are growing. Seek out psychotherapy.

Can occur: I agree with dr. Berkowitz. Delayed post traumatic stress disorder can occur.
