Acute Stress Disorder Assessment
Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) is a short-term but serious response to trauma, often triggered by a distressing or life-threatening event. Symptoms may include vivid flashbacks, emotional numbness, or difficulty sleeping. Left untreated, ASD can develop into longer-term conditions like PTSD.
At Skybi, we offer professional trauma assessment services in Malaysia to help individuals identify early symptoms and receive timely psychological support. Our trauma assessment process is grounded in a trauma-informed care approach, ensuring that clients feel safe, ,respected, and empowered throughout. Each evaluation includes one-on-one consultation, comprehensive screening, and clear next-step guidance to support both understanding and healing.
Key Symptoms of Acute Stress Disorder
Acute Stress Disorder symptoms may appear within days of a traumatic event and can feel overwhelming. Common signs include:
☑️ Intrusive thoughts or vivid flashbacks related to the event
☑️ Emotional numbness or difficulty connecting with others
☑️ Trouble sleeping or maintaining restful sleep
☑️ Heightened Irritability or ongoing tension
☑️ Feeling mentally foggy, overwhelmed or detached
These symptoms can vary in intensity and may interfere with daily life, even if the trauma occurred recently.
How Acute Stress Disorder Might Affect Daily Life
Unaddressed trauma can quietly disrupt a person’s ability to function, focus, or connect. Individuals may experience:
🤯
Shock-like States
Feeling dazed or frozen during conversations
🛌
Restlessness
Tossing and turning at night, unable to settle
💢
Overreacting
Intense emotions over minor issues
🫥

Zoning out during daily routines or tasks.
Recognising these patterns early through a trauma assessment is key to preventing longer-term impacts.
