Post-traumatic stress disorder, often shortened to PTSD, is a severe emotional reaction to a specific experience. It can be brought about by a life-threatening event such as a serious car accident or major incident at work. It is most often associated with forces personnel returning from war zones, but can be caused by many situations.
If you or a loved one suffer from the condition you might be able to make a post-traumatic stress disorder claim.
Usually the symptoms disappear within a matter of weeks, but if they continue PTSD can make it incredibly difficult to lead a normal life. Following a traumatic event, sufferers can face things such as flashbacks, irritability, guilt, problems concentrating or sleeping, anxiety or depression and chronic illness. Faulty product claims.
