POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder and can occur after a war experience, a natural disaster, a plane crash, a terrorist attack, assault, rape, robbery with violence, or seeing people who are seriously injured or slain. During the shocking event or trauma people lose almost all control. Such a shocking event can seriously disrupt the mental and physical balance.


Mind and body remain as it were, taking into account risk no longer exists: the fear continues to exist all the time. Chronic stress, oversized vigilance, and all kinds of physical symptoms are often the result.

Many patients with PTSD undergoing psychotherapy in which they relive their traumatic memory in a safe environment and ultimately the memories can provide a place and overcome fear.


But memories can be so entrenched that the therapy does not always work.

 In a recent study, neuroscientists from MIT's Widower Institute for Learning and Memory can demonstrate that traumatic memories may fade.
