Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

What is PTSD?

Post-traumatic stress disorder, or ‘PTSD’, is a mental health problem that you may get by going through a harmful, scary or stressful event (known as ‘trauma’ or ‘traumatic events’). These events may include serious accidents, family violence, bullying, rape, war or natural disasters. It is normal to feel very worried and afraid during and after such events. These feelings usually go away with time, but with PTSD they are stronger and keep coming back. People with PTSD relive the traumatic events through uncontrollable thoughts, vivid flashbacks and intrusive memories. This can make it difficult to manage daily life or maintain relationships with family and friends.
