What Is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder?
3. Mood Changes
Post-traumatic stress disorder can cause the patient to undergo significant changes in their mood. They can develop the habit of thinking that their future is hopeless, and generally harbor negative thoughts about themselves and others. The patient might also begin to feel detached from friends and family members.
The condition can also make the patient feel vacant emotionally and they may find it difficult to experience positive emotions. They may also begin to lose interest in hobbies and other activities and they can find it difficult to maintain relationships. Memory loss is another potential symptom, particularly memories that involve harrowing events.
