Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) develops in people who experience traumatic or dangerous events. It causes symptoms like nightmares, flashbacks, sleep problems, emotional numbing, and hyperventilation. While genetics play a small role, the disorder is primarily caused by traumatic life experiences. Genetics are more likely to influence PTSD if twins experience trauma together or if a family has a history of addiction issues.
