Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is the reflex action of mind against traumas in a person’s life. The trauma may be physical or sexual abuse, accidents, natural or human-made catastrophes, war combats, terrorism, loss of a loved one, or any other incident that had deeply affected the person’s psychology. It is common in people who have undergone any such disturbing events, but it is often confused with other mental ailments like depression, anxiety, substance abuse, etc.

Women are twice likely than men to develop PTSD, and children do too. Though a person may recover from PTSD at one point, he may continue to suffer from depression and anxiety for months and sometimes even years.

To treat a disorder, it is necessary that we find its origin first. So, it is essential that we identify PTSD accurately. And PTSD is often difficult to diagnose.

How to Differentiate Between PTSD and Other Mental Disorders?

Overlapping symptoms is one of the primary reasons for this confusion. For instance, a person may suffer from depression and anxiety at once or depression and PTSD at once. Sometimes, the symptoms of the two different conditions may even co-exist. Consider a person who is already suffering from depression. If he/she undergoes a traumatic incident, apart from PTSD, depression deepens. Though there is no particular cause of depression, PTSD follows any traumatic events like rape, witnessing a crime, etc.

So, here is a list of common symptoms of PTSD that will help you figure out if a person is suffering from PTSD:

It is not necessary that the symptoms start showing up right after the incident. It may take months or even years after the traumatic incident.

There are three significant symptoms:

• Recurring memories of the incident that affected you, like flashbacks or over voices, nightmares and reliving the incident through theses type of physical or emotional reactions.
• Emotional numbness and avoiding talking about the incident or anything or anyone related to it.
• Feeling on edge, jumpy, easily scared or angered, difficulty in sleeping and concentrating.

You may be down on yourself. You shall feel:

• Persistently negative moods
• Hopeless, depressed,
• Self-destructive like drinking too much alcohol or drive too fast
• Detached from people and social interactions
• easily startled or frightened, or you might always be on guard for danger
• Have trouble sleeping due to fear of nightmares that make you relive the memory

Some overlapping symptoms of PTSD and other mental illnesses are Insomnia, Lack of focus, lack of interest, Irritability, Detachment from people, and the world.

If you feel or notice a person feeling the symptoms mentioned above for four weeks or longer, then it is impulsive that you consult a psychiatrist for professional advice, diagnosis, and treatment.

It was recently found that neurological symptoms are most common in patients suffering from COVID-19. Apart from the respiratory system, the deadly virus affects the nervous system.

The researchers of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and the University of Colorado School of Medicine have identified mild neurological symptoms like weakness, headaches, dizziness, decreased alertness, weakness, muscle pain, difficulty concentrating, and loss of smell and taste to more severe symptoms like stroke and seizure in the hospitalized coronavirus patients. These symptoms may even begin to show before the usual symptoms like cold, fever, etc., warned Dr. Igor Koralnik, Northwestern Medicine chief of neuro-infectious diseases and global neurology.

According to a journal published in Annals of Neurology, the infection affects the spinal cord, brain, muscles, and nerves in several other ways apart from directly manifesting them. It affects the lung such that the passage of oxygen is blocked, leading to clotting of blood in the heart, as a result of which seizure occur. Another method of manifestation is through inflammation by the immune system.

As this is a pandemic, with the virus spread across the globe, scientists are working on discovering a drug or vaccine that helps overcome the neurological manifestations of the COVID-19 infection, says the journal.

Though around 50 percent of the hospitalized patients showed neurological manifestation, the severe symptoms like seizures were only seen in 0.5%. About 17 percent of the patients suffered dizziness, 13 percent had headaches, 7.5 percent had impaired consciousness, 3 percent showed acute cerebrovascular disease ( It is a disorder that affects the blood vessels and blood supply to the brain), 0.5 percent experiencing ataxia (the loss of full control of bodily movements).

However, long term neurological effects of the virus are yet to be unveiled. Studies are going on with the hospitalized patients to find if these are temporary symptoms or permanent.
