post-traumatic stress disorder
trauma- and stressor-related disorder, also considered an anxiety disorder, arising as a delayed and protracted response to experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event involving actual or threatened death, serious injury or sexual violence to self or others
Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a severe disorder consisting of a widespread range of symptoms following a traumatic event which exceeds the person's coping skills . Some occupational groups (like fire-fighters, police officers, health and social workers, bank employees and journalists) are more prone to the development of PTSD due to the unique demands of their jobs and an increased likelihood of being exposed to trauma.
