Overview

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) ek serious psychiatric condition hai jo kisi traumatic event ke baad develop ho sakti hai. Trauma physical assault, accident, natural disaster, war exposure, abuse ya kisi life-threatening incident se related ho sakta hai.

Yeh condition daily functioning, relationships aur occupational performance ko significantly impact kar sakti hai.
