Post traumatic stress disorder is a disorder that usually occurs after a particularly painful, traumatizing, or horrific experience which leaves the victim unable to release the tension and stress of the event. Some symptoms are flashbacks, sudden panic attacks, and anxiety. This severe anxiety disorder overwhelms the victim's ability to cope with daily life. PTSD can have lasting effects on the victim's social, emotional, and occupational life.
