P OSTTRAUMATIC S TRESS D ISORDER (PTSD) No. 70 All children and adolescents experience stressful events which can affect them both emotionally and physically. Their reactions to stress are usually brief, and they recover without further problems. A child or adolescent who experiences a catastrophic event may develop ongoing difficulties known as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The stressful or traumatic event involves a situation where someone’s life has been threatened or severe injury has occurred (ex. they may be the victim or a witness of physical abuse, sexual abuse, violence in the home or in the community, automobile accidents, natural disasters (such as flood, fire, earthquakes), and being diagnosed with a life threatening illness). A child’s risk of developing PTSD is related to the seriousness of the trauma, whether the trauma is repeated, the child’s proximity to the trauma, and his/her relationship to the victim(s). Following the trauma, children may initially show agitated or confused behavior. They also may show intense fear, helplessness, anger, sadness, horror or denial. Children who experience repeated trauma may develop a kind of emotional numbing to deaden or block the pain and trauma. This is called dissociation. Children with PTSD avoid situations or places that remind them of the trauma. They may also become less responsive emotionally, depressed, withdrawn, and more detached from their feelings. A child with PTSD may also re-experience the traumatic event by:

The Etiology of Combat-Related Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders by Jim Goodwin, Psy.D. (1987) IN: Tom Williams (Ed.) Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders: a handbook for clinicians, pp. 1-18. Published in Cincinatti, Ohio by DISABLED AMERICAN VETERANS National Headquarters P O Box 14301 Cincinnati, OH 45214 INTRODUCTION Most Vietnam veterans have adjusted well to life back in the United States, following their wartime experiences. That's a tribute to these veterans who faced a difficult homecoming to say the least. However, a very large number of veterans haven't made it all the way home from the war in Southeast Asia. By conservative estimates, at least half a million Vietnam veterans still lead lives plagued by serious, war-related readjustment problems. Such problems crop up in a number of ways, varying from veteran to veteran. Flashbacks to combat... feelings of alienation or anger... depression, loneliness and an inability to get close to others... sometimes drug or alcohol problems... perhaps even suicidal feelings. The litany goes on. In its efforts to help these veterans, the 700,000-member Disabled American Veterans (DAV) funded the FORGOTTEN WARRIOR PROJECT research on Vietnam veterans by John P. Wilson, Ph.D. at Cleveland State University. That research resulted in formation of the DAV Vietnam Veterans Outreach Program to provide counseling to these veterans in 1978. With 70 outreach offices across the United States, this DAV program served as a model for the Veterans Administration (VA) Operation Outreach program for Vietnam era veterans, which was established approximately a year later.

Additional Information General Description New Jersey Resources Recommended Web Sites Patient Education ... PubMED Search Posttraumatic stress disorder is an anxiety disorder caused by exposure to an overwhelming traumatic event, in which the person later repeatedly reexperiences the event. Experiences that threaten death or serious injury can affect people long after the experience is over. Intense fear, helplessness, or horror can haunt a person. Traumatic events may involve having been threatened with death or serious injury or witnessing violence against another person. Examples include engaging in military combat, experiencing or witnessing sexual or physical assault, or being affected by a disaster, either natural (for example, a hurricane) or man-made (for example, a severe automobile accident). Sometimes symptoms do not begin until many months or even years after the traumatic event took place (delayed onset). If posttraumatic stress disorder has been present for 3 months or longer, it is considered chronic. Posttraumatic stress disorder affects at least 8% of people sometime during their life, including childhood. Many people who undergo or witness traumatic events, such as combat veterans and victims of rape or other violent acts, experience posttraumatic stress disorder.
