What is PTSD?
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that occurs after experiencing or witnessing a distressing or traumatising event. It affects your thoughts, emotions, memory, and everyday functioning. While being distressed and scared due to a traumatising incident might be temporary, if the symptoms persist beyond several weeks or months, they may interfere with your ability to function in your everyday activities
In Kerala, people may refer to it as “overthinking,” “shock,” or “manasika vedana,” but it is a recognised medical condition related to mental health, not a personal weakness. Clinically, PTSD is classified under ICD-10 code F43.1. Globally, millions of people experience PTSD, making it an important mental health concern. The good news is that PTSD is treatable with the right support, therapy, and care.
