The symptoms of psychiatric trauma vary depending on the magnitude and duration of trauma. If for instance it was a one time traumatic event such the death of a loved one then there can be emotional, psychological and physical symptoms such as sadness, anger, depression, heartache etc. As this is a highly traumatic one time event, the symptoms will generally be exhibited around the event. If the person has not dealt with the loss and repressed the event then symptoms may be exhibited at a later time.
If for instance the trauma is ongoing such as repeated verbal and/or physical abuse then the emotional, psychological and physical symptoms can be sadness, anger, fatigue, loss of appetite, nervousness, low self-esteem, depression, aches, wounds etc. As this is an ongoing trauma for an individual the symptoms are exhibited at each occurrence of the event and could possibly become habitual if the abuse occurs for long periods of time.
