Not eating unless I make her This has come out of no-where - does any of this sound like Post Traumatic Stress Disorder? Who should I take her to see - all GP's in our area are hopeless Thank-you in advance.

Post-traumatic stress disorder not Post traumatic shock disorder. I am also saddened by fact that I have not found support to have this forum as it seems so many have problems with PTSD.

This said, I think it important that you tell your parents what is going on and see if you can get in to see a therapist about it so you can sort out the dreams and hopefully resolve it. Take care. Keep us posted on how you are doing.

Yesterday and today Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has been associated with any traumatic event which leaves the witness/participant with feelings of helplessness. There are several definitions for PTSD however, I believe the most accurate is: PTSD is an emotional injury based on a catastrophic event.

Thanks for the suggestion. Post traumatic stress disorder is a type of anxiety disorder. We already offer an anxiety/panic tracker. Does this not meet your needs? If not, we can add or modify the tracker to better meet your needs. Please tell us what does or does not work for you.

Post-traumatic stress disorder is a type of anxiety disorder as I understand so yes it can be one reason your heart failure developed. I strongly believe mine happened because of high stress level for years and very high for a few months. Even with family history, viral infection, and long time not treated high blood pressure that all also factors, and I had them all ,if the stress level wasn’t that high that I had I probably never get down that suddenly and badly.

Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) does not 'go away' and is not 'cured', like the rest of the mental disorders we see so much of these days like depression, anxiety, etc. These disorders must be MANAGED, with counseling, medication, or both. Ask your doctor about this.

PTSD is triggered by a traumatic event or series of traumatic events, and it seems like if that happened to a person with chronic adjustment disorder, he or she could get PTSD, just the same way a person without chronic adjustment disorder could.

t dounbt that you have some depression issues but to me it sounds more like PTS (post traumatic stress), or it may even be PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). I think the best thing you can do is try to continue with the counseling. Depression works a little differently than PTSD. The symptoms you are describing with the anger and fear sound a lot like PTSD.

I was talking to my dad the other day and he brought up how it could possibly be Post traumatic stress disorder bcs I am not worrying about it never going away. I constnatly think about it every day. I just try to explain how even when i try to ignore it it is still there slightly. I guess my questions is is it possible to be imagining or bringing on such symptoms to there full effect due to anxiety?

PTSD is treatable and once you find closure for a lot of it the symptoms seem to subside a bit. Fear causes stress and stress can bring about some pretty severe physical and mental symptoms. Anyway like I said I am not a doctor but I have met a lot of people with PTSD mostly in the military but a significant amount in the civilian world. I hope this gets easier for you.

You may want to do some research on PTSD-Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Any kind of trauma can cause a person to have PTSD, and the symptoms vary. The severity of the symptoms can also change over time. There are some very good therapy techniques for dealing with PTSD. Dissociation and missing time (blanking out memories) are definitely part of PTSD.

Sounds like post-traumatic stress disorder with flashbacks of the traumatic episode being the leading the symptom. You should seek out a medical professional and get the help needed for it.
