Symptom #9: Emotional Instability
Another common symptom that people from PTSD can develop is emotional instability. PTSD is a condition that’s heavily based on emotion, and it can cause some serious emotional distress for those who are not sure of how to cope with it.
Emotional instability often manifests in negative ways. After a traumatic experience a person may become more aggressive and angry, being more prone to outbursts. They may become more irritable and lash out for little reason, or they may develop a habit of self-destructive or reckless behavior.
