Posttraumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, is an anxiety disorder that develops in some individuals after seeing or living through an event that caused or threatened serious harm or death. Symptoms include flashbacks, bad dreams, emotional numbness, intense guilt or worry, angry outbursts, feeling "on edge," or avoiding thoughts and situations that remind them of the trauma. PTSD affects many civilians as well as veterans and military personnel. Approximately 8 percent of the American population will be affected by PTSD at some point in their lives. In this program, Dr. Friedman provides an overview of the diagnostic criteria for PTSD and explores its epidemiology, risk factors, and neurobiological findings. Evidence-based treatment options are also discussed.
