PTSD

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that some people develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, such as war, accidents, or assaults. Symptoms often include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Individuals may also experience emotional numbness and avoidance of reminders of the trauma. PTSD can significantly affect daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. Treatment typically involves therapy, medication, or both, helping individuals process their experiences and develop coping strategies to manage their symptoms. It's important to seek help from a qualified professional if you or someone you know is struggling.
