Answer preview

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric illness brought on by seeing or enduring a frightening incident. Memories, hallucinations, and extreme anxiety, as well as uncontrolled rumination about the incident, are all possible symptoms. Most individuals who experience traumatic experiences have considerable difficulties adapting and managing, but they typically get more robust with experience and proper self-care (Javidi & Yadollahie, 2012). One could have this disorder if your symptoms worsen, persist for months and years, and impede one’s daily work. It is important to get therapy when PTSD symptoms appear to decrease symptoms and enhance function (Yehuda, Hoge, McFarlane, Vermetten, Lanius, Nievergelt & Hyman, 2015).
