What Are ACE? 

“ACEs” stands for Adverse Childhood Experiences.

These include three specific kinds of adversity children face in the home environment—various forms of physical and emotional abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction.

When to Consider Therapy 

It is always helpful to work with a therapist or trauma specialist.

However, you should seriously consider therapy if you are experiencing any of the following:

• You can’t think of certain memories without experiencing intense distress.
• You experience intrusive memories, including nightmares, flashbacks, or hallucinations.
• You or your surroundings seem unreal.
• You experience disturbing emotions frequently (e.g., crushing feelings of low self-worth, shame, fear, depression, hopelessness, irritability, or extreme rage, etc.).
• You feel numb, unable to experience happy feelings.
• You have a mental illness, such as anxiety, panic disorder, depression, borderline personality disorder, or bipolar disorder.
• You are harming or thinking about to harm yourself (e.g., suicidal thoughts, thoughts of cutting or otherwise injuring your body, engaging in risky behaviors such as driving dangerously or while intoxicated, having unprotected sex, etc.)
• Any memories or symptoms seem overwhelming.
