This could be witnessing trauma, direct exposure to trauma, learning that someone close to you has experienced trauma, and exposure to traumatic events through work.\n</p><h3>Intrusion\n</h3><p>Intrusion symptoms are the act of re-experiencing trauma. This could be in the form of flashbacks, nightmares, distressing memories or triggers.\n</p><h3>Changes to mood &amp; thoughts\n</h3><p>After a traumatic event, you might experience changes in mood and thoughts, which could come in the form of blaming yourself for the trauma, difficulty feeling positive, feeling isolated, struggles to remember the traumatic event clearly, and overall negative feelings about yourself and the world.\n</p><h3>Avoidance\n</h3><p>Avoidance, these symptoms are when the person affected tries to avoid remembering the event, talking about what happened and how they are feeling.\n</p><h3>Changes in reactivity\n</h3><p>And finally any signs of changes in reactivity. This could be represented in heightened emotions, difficulty sleeping and concentrating, engaging in destructive behavior and hyper-awareness.\n</p><h2 class='\"list\"'>7-37% of firefighters will
