Acute Stress Disorder Treatment at Home

Most people will experience stress at some point in their lives, but Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) is different from a stress disorder as it can feel severe and overwhelming. Symptoms of ASD manifest immediately following the event and are usually short-term, typically lasting for less than one month. Beyond this length of time, individuals are more likely to be suffering with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Orchestrate Health is private pay healthcare company and therefore works outside the NHS and CAMHS provision.

Causes of Acute Stress Disorder

Typical causes of ASD include witnessing or experiencing a deeply traumatic event. These include:

  • Receiving a life-threatening diagnosis
  • The sudden death of a loved one
  • A serious accident or injury
  • Physical or sexual assault
  • A natural disaster such as an earthquake, fire, or hurricane
  • A terrorist attack

Signs and Symptoms of Acute Stress Disorder

ASD can be recognised through several signs and symptoms. When we experience these symptoms, our body responds as if we are still in danger. Adrenaline pumps through our bloodstream and we are ready ourselves to fight, run away or freeze. Symptoms can be physical and/or psychological, and typically include:

  • Heart palpitations
  • Nightmares or sleep disturbances
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Chest pain
  • Feeling on edge or easily startled
  • Intrusive memories
  • An inability to experience positive emotions
  • Low mood
  • Flashbacks

Treatment for Acute Stress Disorder

The symptoms of Acute Stress Disorder can make seeking treatment difficult. You might worry that your healthcare provider won’t take you seriously, you might already be on a long waiting list, or have already had some help that didn’t work.

Our Stepped Care approach ensures that you only ever receive the care that you need, at an appropriate level. We meet you precisely where you are at, and we stay with you throughout your entire journey. 

We understand how important timely interventions are when it comes to your mental wellbeing. We offer rapid response assessments within 24 hours of you contacting us, and we will develop a bespoke treatment package using our Stepped Care model.

Most of our private healthcare treatments can be delivered in the comfort and safety of your own home. You will not need to travel to appointments, attend groups with unfamiliar people, or check in to an inpatient treatment programme.

You will be able to build a trusting bond with your therapist as you move towards a future where you are in control, rather than your symptoms controlling you.
