Living better after trauma and finding support

With ECLAT 38 Association

Proposed by Association ECLAT 38 Updated on il y a un an

Adapted and personalized support for isolated people with post-traumatic stress disorders (nightmares, physical and mental exhaustion, hallucinations, etc.).

The objectives are to:

be helped before entering care
be directed to places suited to their situation
do chosen activities and regain self-confidence.

You have to be referred by a professional or a volunteer.

Why is it interesting?

Symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder can include:

difficulty sleeping, nightmares
physical and mental fatigue/exhaustion
difficulty learning and memorizing
revivals (repetitions or reappearances), hallucinations
etc...

Learning about and understanding your symptoms can help you live with them and get better.

We provide support when entering care:

A psychiatrist can direct you to the most appropriate place for your situation and write a letter
The mediator can help you translate, make an appointment, and accompany you if necessary on the day of the appointment.

You can choose a physical or cultural activity that you like: reading, cooking, cycling...
The mediator accompanies you to the practice location and stays if necessary.

If it is still too difficult to join a group, it is possible to practice the activity in pairs, with a volunteer from our association.

You regain self-confidence
You trust others more.

How to do it?

You need to get in touch with a professional or volunteer who is supporting you and talk to them about this journey.
You must ask them to go to the ECLAT 38 website and contact the association to join this course.
