  - - - PTSD can contribute to a number of different types of learning difficulties. Some of the areas that might be affected include:
      - Memory
      - Compared with people who don't have it, people with PTSD tend to have problems with remembering:2
      - Words (verbal memory)
      - Facts and other important information, such as appointments
      - Specific details of past events, especially with regard to traumatic events
      - Attention
        
        PTSD can also contribute to problems with attention, making it difficult to concentrate on information. They may also have difficulty concentrating and be easily distracted, which makes it hard for them to pay attention when doing tasks.
      - problem solving
        
        t also is not uncommon for people with PTSD to experience difficulties when it comes to solving problems. Other symptoms of the condition, such as avoidance and attention difficulties, may contribute to these challenges. In one study, higher scores on measures of PTSD symptoms were linked to worse problems solving skills
    - - Ways to cope with children who have coping with learning difficulties at school.
        
        Seek PTSD treatment
        
        If you think you may have one or more learning difficulties in addition to PTSD, and you don't yet have a healthcare provider who can work with you to set up a treatment plan, it may be time to look for one.
        
        practice trauma informed minfullness
        
        Mindfulness is a practice that involves becoming more aware of internal thoughts and feelings while focusing attention on the present.
        
        Train the Memory
        
        Memory-boosting strategies can also help combat some of the problems with learning, memory, and attention that are connected to PTSD.
  - - - Overwhelming sadness, fear or anger.
        
        Having flashbacks or nightmares.
        
        Feeling detached from your life and loved ones.
        
        Avoiding memories of the illness.
    - - Reaching out to talk to someone, either a professional or a loved one.
        
        Taking steps to protect yourself against infection. This includes wearing a mask in public and washing your hands.
        
        Generating a sense of personal calmness. Avoid news reports if they trigger anxiety. Exercise or try yoga or deep breathing exercises.
        
        Staying connected. Use technology or find creative and socially distant ways to stay in touch with family and friends.
