PTSD is a psychological disorder that involves a maladaptive reaction to a traumatic event. People with this disorder usually have a continuous problem of adjustment, even after several years after the traumatic event has passed. Symptoms are avoiding anything that reminds them of the event, traumatic flashbacks, depression or severe anxiety, difficulties relaxing , and difficulties feeling strong emotions. Common suffers of PTSD are people that have AIDS, cancer, or were once in combat.
