Why is this written???

Since we began TABS in 1998, we have recognised that people who make contact with us have a very real experience of PTSD. They just want to:

  1. be heard.
  2. be believed.
  3. know that they are not alone.

When they understand this, they are on the road to recovery.

When listening to people, the focus is usually on the way forward, rather than delving too much in to the trauma. Our interest is not in names and places, but rather on movement towards recovery and well-being.

Please enjoy contacting the closest person to you! Or if there is no-one close by, refer to the listings for Pregnancy Help and Mothers Matter on the 'PTSD-aware Support Groups' page.
