Subtitles (101 segments)
Many of us will experience some kind of trauma during our lifetime.
Sometimes, we escape with no long-term effects.
But for millions of us, those experiences linger,
causing symptoms like flashbacks,
nightmares,
and negative thoughts that interfere with everyday life.
This phenomenon, called post-traumatic stress disorder,
or PTSD,
isn’t a personal failing;
rather, it’s a treatable malfunction of certain biological mechanisms
that allow us to cope with dangerous experiences.
To understand PTSD,
we first need to understand how the brain processes a wide range of ordeals,
including the death of a loved one,
domestic violence,
injury or illness,
abuse,
rape,
war,
car accidents,
and natural disasters.
