PTSD is a stress reaction when we experience - or are exposed to - serious accidents and abuse. PTSD is a disorder of the mind that goes away on its own after some time. We stop thinking about the unpleasant experiences. We displace them. We forget.

When we have PTSD we can suffer from flashbacks. We relive the unpleasant experiences over and over again. The emotions are intense and often produce physical reactions. We get nightmares.

We prefer to avoid talking about the trauma we have experienced. If it is very bad, we also want to avoid people. That's why you hear about soldiers who live alone in the woods after being at war.
