Understanding PTSD
PTSD is a serious mental health condition that can develop after an individual experiences or witnesses a traumatic event. This can include events such as combat exposure, sexual or physical assault, natural disasters, serious accidents, or the unexpected death of a loved one. Symptoms of PTSD can significantly impact daily life, relationships, and overall well-being.
Symptoms of PTSD are generally grouped into four categories:
1. Intrusive Memories
2. Avoidance
3. Negative Changes in Thinking and Mood
4. Changes in Physical and Emotional Reactions
