Therapists don't "stop" PTSD in the sense of making symptoms and intrusive thoughts disappear permanently and completely. However, treatment of PTSD has a several major goals. Part of them depend on what the client wants.
First, it's important to work on safety and grounding. Then we work on identifying the psychological triggers and work on removing the severe and negative responses. Once some of the symptoms reduce, we work on decreasing the unhealthy coping mechanisms. Finally we work on trust and positive relationships.
As things improve, some clients want to work on piecing together their identity and inner strengths. This can be a lengthy process since in PTSD pieces of identity can be fractured and buried under years or decades of survival skills. Some of the processes that get clients through these issues include EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Stress Inoculation Training, Imagery Rehearsal Technique, and overall trauma-focused CBT.
Ultimately we will help clients learn to cope with the trauma and find new strengths. But the events don't disappear.
Yes it is normal for someone with post traumatic stress disorder to feel very frustrated and agitated when they are triggered. PTSD affects everyone differently which may cause mood swings and personality disorders.

PTSD stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. It was first observed in war veterans a century ago, when it was called "shell-shocked". With further advances in mental health research and treatment, the understanding of trauma has been expanded from war zones to also include people who have had serious experiences -- sexual or family-of-origin abuse, catastrophes like weather phenomena or bombings, even vehicle crashes and home invasions/kidnappings. Most therapists study the effects and treatment strategies for PTSD in school, and there are many therapists who specialize in this sort of treatment. Frequent sufferers include 'first responders' like police, fire, EMT staff; and soldiers and civilians caught in war zones. Ibogaine is becoming a preferred (and very effective) treatment for PTSD, and Mexico-based clinics who specialize in Ibogaine have seen an uptick in patients coming specifically for PTSD. Ibogaine is a plant-based medicine that resets dopamine receptors which are often damaged by anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction; it's also showing remarkable promise for people with Parkinson's and ADHD. The top program in Mexico is New Path Specialized Clinic, and they can be found at NewPathIbogaine dot com
