What if it is too late for me?

Dr. Abigail Angkaw, Clinical Psychologist, answers common questions about PTSD.

Transcript

If you experienced a trauma that happened many years ago,

you may be concerned that it's too late for treatment,

when actually, maybe now is the best time for treatment.

So, even thinking about treatment, because for 30 years,

for a dozen years what you've been doing hasn't been working.

And so coming into treatment, this can be a great time

to try something else, to try something new.

And we have seen Veterans who benefit from the treatments

that we provide even after they've experienced traumas

that occurred many years ago.
