Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying event — either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Reports suggest that twice as many women have been affected by PTSD than men.
3.6% of the US Adult population experienced post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the past year.*
5% of adolescents age 13-18 in the US experience PTSD in their lifetime.*
About 8 million adults have PTSD during a given year. This is only a small portion of those who have gone through a trauma.*
