About PTSD
Many people will experience a life-threatening traumatic event in their lifetime, including but not limited to:
- Physical or sexual assault or domestic abuse
- A serious accident (in the workplace, in a vehicle, in public, etc.)
- Natural disaster
- Military/first responder traumatic events
Events such as these can trigger a range of symptoms, including:
- Flashbacks, nightmares, or trouble sleeping
- Avoiding things that bring on distressing memories
- Negative thoughts or feelings, feeling detached
- Feeling on edge or easily startled
While these symptoms often go away in a few weeks, for some they never go away and linger for months or even years – a condition known as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
See If You Qualify
If you suffered a traumatic or terrifying event that is causing unwanted lingering effects, you may qualify for a confidential research study. The study is evaluating the effectiveness of an investigational oral medication on PTSD symptoms when taken once daily over a 12-week period.
