Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that occurs following one or more traumatic or life threatening events.
Such events include witnessing a death, a threat to one’s own life, or the lives of friends and family, suffering a serious physical injury, a sexual assault etc.
Symptoms associated with PTSD include re-experience (flashbacks and nightmares), hypervigilance, avoidance behaviours, withdrawal from others, and insomnia. Symptoms by definition last more than 6 months, and can seriously impair social and occupational interaction.
In the United States alone, 7.7 million adults suffer from PTSD, equivalent to around 3.5% of the adult population. Women are more likely to be affected by the disorder than men.
Rape is the most common trigger of PTSD, with current figures showing 65% of male and 45.9% of female rape victims developing the disorder following the event. Childhood sexual abuse is also a strong predictor of developing PTSD later in life.
