Among the most draining conditions that affect adults with anxiety disorders is PTSD or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. This condition commonly follows somebody who comes through a physical or emotional event that was terrifying to him or her. Brought to a head by our ex-servicemen, it was often known as "combat fatigue" or "shell shock." It has been found to happen in both men and women who have had serious car accidents, survived a natural tragedy, bombings, a plane crash, or violent personal attacks. Abuse in childhood can also cause PTSD. How severe the disorder will be is dictated by the duration and severity of the event that caused it.
