Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is often linked to images of military personnel amid war and combat. However, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder goes much further than battle and the difficulties of war. Take, for example, a story from P.K. Philips. Several traumas, including a childhood of physical, mental, sexual abuse and ultimately an attack at knifepoint, lead Philips to significant experiences of flashbacks and nightmares. Unable to sleep, Philips became nervous and anxious at home. Once symptoms subsided, years went by until another traumatic event brought back the panic and anxiousness. Philips sought help and was diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
