If someone reacts to a traumatic event, it doesn’t mean they have PTSD. Taking a PTSD self-screen can help you determine if your feelings or behaviors may be related to PTSD. Take the 5-question self-screen or share it: ptsd.va.gov/screen/

I was also able to mention a few reasons for our high PTSD rate (11%):
- Colonisation, forced removal and intergenerational trauma
- Immigration detention and its role in facilitating trauma
- Accurate and reliable system
Thank you @Global_Trauma for the opportunity!

It was an honour to about regional PTSD prevalence at #ESTSS2025, alongside my college Dr Carolina Saldago!
Australia's data capturing systems are exceptional, but our neighbours in NZ are still lacking reliable, up-to-date prevalence rates for trauma!
