"Symptoms may include: nightmares; flashbacks, or feeling like the event is happening again; staying away from places and things that remind you of what happened; being irritable, angry, or jumpy; feeling strong guilt, depression, or worry; trouble sleeping; feeling numb; and having trouble remembering the event. Women are 2 to 3 times more likely to develop PTSD than men. Also, people with ongoing stress in their lives are more likely to develop PTSD after a dangerous event."
