Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder inflicted by experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, triggering a variety of symptoms. Individuals with PTSD can experience symptoms such as nightmares, flashbacks, and detached behavior, leading to the inability to function normally, particularly in social or family life (Iribarren et al., 2005). These symptoms can affect a person for a lifetime, emphasizing the importance of this disorder.
