How may post-traumatic stress disorder manifest?

Psychologist Daria Serebryakova has told MedikForum.ru that the shock that triggers the emergence of post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD may be an event that occurs only once in a person’s life or it may take the form of repeated stress. However, in any case, it is so intense that the psyche is not able to cope with.

The disorder can be indicated by internal tension, aggression and lack of calm. The doctor drew attention to the fact that the injured person could not always clearly formulate what exactly was the shock for him (especially if it had happened a long time ago). The central nervous system can even induce amnesia as a way of coping with the ravages of a traumatic event. However, in this case, a person, for example, may be haunted by nightmares, increased anxiety, mood problems, and tendency to panic attacks.

“Besides, with a sharp flashback of this event due to a smell, sound, picture or other factors, severe anxiety or fear may arise,” added Daria Serebryakova.

People with PTSD are characterized by dissociation, a condition, in which there is no adequate perception of the situation (the person does not understand where they are). According to psychologist, this disorder requires medical treatment and professional advice.
