Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event. It can lead to intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to the event that last long after the trauma has ended. These symptoms can severely disrupt daily functioning and overall well-being.
Intrusive memories or flashbacks
Avoidance of reminders of the trauma
Negative changes in mood and thoughts
Increased arousal and reactivity (e.g., irritability, hypervigilance)
Difficulty with sleep or concentration
PTSD is triggered by exposure to actual or threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence. This exposure can be direct, by witnessing the event, learning about a close family member’s or friend’s traumatic experience, or through repeated or extreme exposure to aversive details of traumatic events. The severity and duration of the trauma, along with individual vulnerability factors, can influence its development.
