Abstract
Objective: The authors' goal was to explore the historical, political, and social forces that have played a major role in the acceptance of the idea of trauma as a cause of the specific symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and to discuss the impact that current research findings have had on some of the initial conceptualizations of the disorder. Method: The conceptual origins of PTSD are described, and the literature on the prevalence, longitudinal course, phenomenology, and neurobiology of PTSD is reviewed. Results: Paradoxically, there are a series of findings that support the idea that PTSD is a distinct diagnostic entity but these are different from those originally developed from psychosocial theory and stress research. Conclusions: PTSD has been a controversial diagnosis and is again at a vulnerable point. It is imperative that the field address how current findings challenge the original conceptualizations of this disorder so that the next generation of conceptual issues can be formulated.

October 25, 2002 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DEALING WITH POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD): A GUIDE FOR EDUCATORS In the article "Traumatic Events and Children: How Early Childhood Educators Can Help," published in the Fall 2002 issue of Childhood Education magazine, Indiana University School of Education graduate student Kazim Alat reports that PTSD occurs in 29 to 95 percent of children affected by traumatic events. Those who experience traumatic events before age 11 are more likely to display psychological symptoms associated with PTSD than those who experience traumatic events at a later age (National Center for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, 2001). The teacher is an important part of a child's support system, and often the first adult to note symptoms of posttraumatic stress; therefore his or her responsibility does not end with notification to a professional counselor. Alat says that depending on the type of trauma and the age of the children, appropriate classroom activities can be planned to help children overcome the negative effects of posttraumatic stress. Educators may:
  • Use toys and other materials to provide opportunities to reenact events from a traumatic event.

Some individuals report irritability or outbursts of anger (Criterion D2) or difficulty concentrating or completing tasks (Criterion D3). Specifiers The following specifiers may be used to specify onset and duration of the symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: Acute . This specifier should be used when the duration of symptoms is less than 3 months.
Chronic . This specifier should be used when the symptoms last 3 months or longer.

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Posttraumatic stress disorder is a psychiatric sequela of trauma. It results from a traumatic event and consists of three clusters of symptoms: reexperiencing, avoidance, and hyperarousal. The traumatic events can be triggered by human acts (eg, rape, robbery, bombings) or by nature (eg, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes) Nearly 40% of a sample of 1,007 working men and women (mean age, 26 years) in Detroit and its suburbs reported having experienced a major traumatic event, such as rape, fire, flood, a serious traffic accident, or physical violence. Rates of trauma-related symptoms vary widely. For example, 23.6% of the trauma-exposed Detroit residents experienced related psychiatric disorders, compared with 17.9% of the national sample of women. In a review of studies investigating the psychiatric effects of childhood sexual abuse, a surprising 43% (13) of 30 studies Symptoms Posttraumatic stress disorder is the best-known psychiatric sequela of trauma. It was established as a diagnosis in 19806 and consists of three clusters of symptoms: reexperiencing, avoidance, and hyperarousal. Reexperiencing may involve vivid recurring dreams or nightmares, unwanted and relentless thoughts about the event that are difficult or impossible to "turn off," or a sudden overwhelming flood of the feelings.

    POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD)
    A VIETNAM VETERAN'S EXPERIENCE
    INTRODUCTION
    During ones life not many people will make a significant and lasting impression on you. In my life there have been only a few. One of these was Gary Martin. Gary was a career soldier, having joined the army at an early age and served in Korea, Malaya and with the 3rd Battalion Royal Australian Regiment (RAR) and the Training Team (AATTV) in Vietnam. He retired from the army as a Warrant Officer Class I and spent many years working in the Pacific region before settling in Dubbo with his lovely wife. Gary died a few years ago from a liver problem, which he believed was caused by Agent Orange. Gary and I spent considerable time discussing the problems of Vietnam Veterans and how his Vietnam experience impacted on his life. I promised him I would share his views with other veterans one day in a way they could relate to his experience. Gary often said that too much had been written on Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) which was overly scientific, medically orientated or just too complex for the average reader to understand. Similarly, numerous books have been written recently about Vietnam but I feel they do not capture the true sentiment or adequately cover the veteran's view of the PTSD experience and how the condition has impacted on their lives, families and children. In his latter years Gary's main aim was to help other veterans and their families, which he did unselfishly.

    Fortunately, good, evidence based treatments exist for PTSD. Cognitive behavioral interventions in particular appear to be effective. Cognitive behavioral treatments focus on reducing trauma related anxiety and avoidance in order to help people overcome their trauma related fears. Medications have also been found to be very helpful, and in adults, two medications have been approved by the FDA for use with PTSD: sertraline and paroxetine.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-traumatic_stress_disorder
    Post-traumatic stress disorder
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
    Post-traumatic stress disorder Post-traumatic stress disorder PTSD ) is a term for the psychological consequences of exposure to or confrontation with stressful experiences, which involve actual or threatened death, serious physical injury or a threat to physical integrity and which the person found highly traumatic. Symptoms can include reexperiencing phenomena such as nightmares and flashbacks emotional detachment or numbing of feelings (emotional self-mortification) combined with regular hyperarousal and possibly sleep abnormalities ( insomnia avoidance of reminders and extreme distress when exposed to the reminders (" triggers "), with irritability and excessive startle. Experiences likely to induce the condition include childhood physical/emotional or sexual abuse , adult's experiences of rape war and combat exposure, violent attacks, natural catastrophes, and life-threatening complications at childbirth (and perhaps its accompanying exhaustion). For most people, the emotional effects of traumatic events will tend to subside after several months. If they last longer than that then consideration should be given to diagnosing a psychiatric disorder. Most people who experience traumatic events will not develop PTSD. PTSD is primarily an anxiety disorder and should not be confused with normal grief and adjustment after traumatic events. There is also the possibility of simultaneous suffering of other psychiatric disorders (i.e. co-morbidity).

Family members of victims also can develop the disorder. PTSD can occur in people of any age, including children and adolescents. More than twice as many women as men experience PTSD following exposure to trauma. Depression , alcohol or other substance abuse, or other anxiety disorders frequently co-occur with PTSD. The diagnosis of PTSD requires that one or more symptoms from each of the following categories be present for at least a month and that symptom or symptoms must seriously interfere with leading a normal life:
    • Reliving the event through upsetting thoughts, nightmares or flashbacks, or having very strong mental and physical reactions if something reminds the person of the event. Avoiding activities, thoughts, feelings or conversations that remind the person of the event; feeling numb to one's surroundings; or being unable to remember details of the event.
