This article focuses on the study of post traumatic stress disorder in veterans of Vietnam war. The most recent version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual introduced Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as a new diagnostic category. Diagnostic criteria for PTSD include numbing of responsiveness to the external world, re-experiencing the trauma in one of several ways and several cognitive and autonomic disorders. PTSD is more severe after a deliberate man-made disaster than after an accidental disaster; the group of veterans who experienced a war-related traumatic event reported currently experiencing more problems than the group who experienced a non-war-related traumatic event on subscales that assessed mainly affective problems, such as anger, depression, emotional numbness, withdrawal, problems related to combat experiences etc. |
