Learn about some of the common trauma symptoms of child sexual abuse.
Survivors of child sexual abuse may experience a range of symptoms that originate with the trauma they experienced as children.

Some of these symptoms may include: - Sleep issues - Panic attacks - Depression - Anxiety - Triggers - Chronic physical pain - Dysfunctional relationships - Difficult relationship with the body - Sexual intimacy issues - Feelings of shame - Communication issues - Unhealthy behaviors - Emotional numbness And more.
