Well I think I had this the end of last year. Saw a therapist weekly for several months, but now have PTSD from the event (after a certain period of time they no longer call it acute distress disorder). Not in crisis mode from that anymore. Now its my C-PTSD thats impacting me as well as anxiety attacks and depression. I do get occasional flashbacks from the "event".
But the therapy did help me a lot.
