Post-Traumatic Stress (PTSD)

Category: Other conditions

There are many causes of PTSD but generally it is due to someone reliving a traumatic event through nightmares and flashbacks, leading to the experience of feelings of isolation, irritability and guilt. This can cause problems sleeping, such as insomnia, and also may find concentrating difficult. Symptoms are often severe and persistent to have a significant impact on a person's everyday life.
