Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Post-traumatic stress disorder affects men and women all over the world. It is a psychiatric disorder that occurs after life-threatening, or violent events and prevents people from living happy and fulfilling lives. Once thought of as only a wartime disorder, it is now recognized that PTSD can affect anyone who has gone through a particularly traumatizing event. In fact, more than 5 million American men and women are currently affected by the disorder.
