Content Summary

Post-Travmatik Stres Bozukluğu (PTSB), travmatik bir olaya maruz kalmanın ardından gelişen ve kişinin duygusal durumunda hızlı değişikliklere neden olan belirtilerle karakterizedir. Her travma geçiren kişide PTSB görülmez. Belirtiler şiddetliyse ve kişinin genel sağlığını ve ruh sağlığını bozuyorsa tedavi gerektirir. PTSB belirtileri arasında olayı sürekli hatırlama, görüntüler görme, olayı yeniden yaşıyormuş gibi hissetme, olayı hatırlatan uyaranlara karşı yoğun sıkıntı, travma ile ilgili kabuslar, olayı hatırlatan durumlar, kişiler, yerler, aktiviteler ve nesnelerden kaçınma, olayın önemli detaylarının hafızadan silinmesi, sürekli korku, terör duygusu, kişi ve dış dünya hakkında olumsuz genellemeler, dış dünyaya olan ilginin kaybı, duygusal uyuşukluk, çevreden kopma, ani seslere karşı irkilme, uyku sorunu, odaklanma ve bir görevi sürdürme problemi, en küçük şeye karşı ani öfke ve tolerans azalması yer alır. PTSB'nin gelişmesinde, içe dönüklük, dışsal kontrol odağı, işlevsiz başa çıkma tutumları, hayatta kalma suçluluğu, aşırı öfke, genetik ve fiziksel yatkınlık, kişinin travmaya verdiği anlam, yakın zamanda yaşanan stresli yaşam olayları, kişinin veya ailesinde psikiyatrik hastalık öyküsü ve alkol veya madde bağımlılığı öyküsü gibi kişisel yatkınlık faktörleri rol oynar. Ayrıca, vücudun tehlike algısına karşı bir koruma sistemi olan sempatik sistemin boşalmasının ardından kaygı, korku, uyarılma, tetikte olma, seçici dikkatin artması gibi biyolojik tepkiler gözlemlenir; yüksek tansiyon, terleme ve kas gerginliği gibi geçici fiziksel reaksiyonlar da görülebilir.

Symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder are symptoms that are observed and rapidly change in a person's emotional state as a result of an event.

Symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder are not expected to occur in every traumatized person. If the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder are observed intensely in the person after the trauma and this situation disrupts their general health and mental health, it must be treated.
