Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating mental health condition that affects individuals who have experienced or witnessed traumatic events. In the United States alone, PTSD affects millions of people, with an estimated 5% of adults experiencing PTSD in any given year. While anyone can develop PTSD, certain groups, such as veterans, first responders, and survivors of abuse or natural disasters, are more prone to experiencing it. Additionally, research suggests that women are more likely to develop PTSD than men, although the reasons for this gender disparity are not entirely clear.
