Events that can lead to trauma include natural disasters, serious accidents, physical or sexual assault, combat exposure, or witnessing a terrifying event. Not everyone who experiences trauma will develop PTSD, but those who do often relive the traumatic event through flashbacks and nightmares.
While trauma refers to the distressing event and the immediate emotional response, PTSD is a longer-term condition where the individual continues to experience intense reactions and symptoms long after the event has passed.
