Consistent with preventative healthcare or car maintenance, ASAP is helpful before you show signs of needing it. Attending ASAP for stress management tools and to process “low-grade” events is a great way to remain resilient. If you’re already struggling with an event, ASAP is helpful as well. Again, research shows 50-66% reduction in post-traumatic stress symptoms in first responders.
