Thank you for joining me in the Mad King’s Labyrinth to raise money for the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance! This is an online community event in Guild Wars 2 to bring awareness and support to those struggling with depression and bipolar disorder. DBSA hosts in-person and online support groups to help build community and provide support for people with bipolar disorder and/or depression. I’ve found it incredibly helpful in my own life after being diagnosed with Bipolar I disorder. Please, if you or someone you know is struggling, browse the DBSA website and utilize their resources. Thank you for your support!
Feeling fear during or after a traumatic event is natural—it’s part of the body’s fight-or-flight response to danger. Many people experience a range of reactions after trauma, and most recover over time. When symptoms persist, a person may be diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). See common symptoms.
