Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms often appear within three months of a traumatic event but can emerge later. Here are key signs to watch for:

• Re-experiencing Symptoms: Flashbacks, nightmares, or intrusive memories of the event.
• Avoidance: Staying away from places, people, or activities that remind you of the trauma.
• Arousal and Reactivity: Feeling on edge, easily startled, or having difficulty sleeping.
• Cognition and Mood Changes: Negative thoughts, feelings of guilt, or detachment from loved ones.

If these symptoms persist for more than a month and affect your daily life, it’s important to seek help from a mental health professional. Learn more about PTSD and its symptoms by visiting the NIH resource on PTSD.
