Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition
that's triggered by a terrifying event — either experiencing it or
witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and
severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event.
Most people who go through traumatic events may have temporary
difficulty adjusting and coping, but with time and good self-care,
they usually get better.
If the symptoms get worse, last for months or even years, and inter-
fere with your day-to-day functioning, you may have PTSD.
