Acute Stress Disorder: Bridging the Gap between Trauma and Recovery

Brigo Drouin

Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) is a complex psychological condition that arises in response to traumatic events, blurring the boundaries between the initial shock and the journey towards recovery. This abstract explores the multifaceted nature of ASD, highlighting the critical need to bridge the gap between trauma and recovery. ASD emerges within the first few weeks following exposure to a traumatic event and shares similarities with its more enduring counterpart, PostTraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, ASD presents unique challenges and opportunities for early intervention and support. This abstract delves into the diagnostic criteria for ASD, emphasizing the importance of recognizing its symptoms promptly to facilitate early intervention. The psychological mechanisms underpinning ASD, such as intrusive thoughts, dissociation, and hyperarousal, are dissected, shedding light on the intricate interplay between cognitive, emotional, and physiological processes. Furthermore, the role of individual differences in vulnerability and resilience is discussed, underscoring the importance of personalized approaches to treatment. The transition from ASD to recovery is examined, with a focus on evidence-based interventions and therapies. Cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and pharmacological interventions are explored within the context of ASD treatment, offering a comprehensive overview of the available options. This abstract also underscores the significance of social support and community resources in facilitating the recovery process for individuals with ASD. The role of family, friends, and healthcare providers is highlighted, emphasizing the need for a holistic approach to care.
