Childhood Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Jeanette Loftus
Children with PTSD have experienced a traumatic event which can lead to the development of an exaggerated anxious stress response. An example of this is if they have experienced a stressful life event such as a natural disaster or if they have been abused. Children who are most at risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder are children who witnessed a traumatic event and were hurt directly or already have other anxieties prior to the traumatic event.
A child with post-traumatic stress disorder can re-experience trauma and have nightmare's or think about their past traumatic experiences.
Children are resilient, the good news is that many children who have experienced a traumatic event will not develop PTSD or they will recover in a small amount of time.
Children who have post-traumatic stress disorder have experienced a traumatic event or sometimes if they have been abused.
Children are at risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder if they have witnessed a traumatic event, were hurt directly or already have other anxieties prior to the traumatic event.
A child with post-traumatic stress disorder can experience trauma over and over and have nightmares about the traumatic event or think about their past traumatic experiences.
