Abstract:

Post-traumatic stress (PTSD) is a key-word in the context of new developments in contemporary society. In addition to confrontation or witnessing events that involved death or serious injuries, its defining elements are persisting re-experiencing, avoiding stimuli associated with trauma, along with lasting symptoms of hyper-excitability. As a reference to the gravity of this condition, it is estimated that up to 35 % of the people directly exposed to the 9/11 attacks presented post-traumatic stress symptoms (Yehuda, 2002).
