Difficult to determine the prognosis of ptsd, since very different conditions for the occurrence and development disorders. Some people are not getting help restore themselves within a year, sometimes in spite of treatment the patient commits suicide. According to studies in patients with ptsd who receive treatment, the average duration of symptoms is two times less than in those patients who do not receive treatment. About a third of patients did not recover from ptsd.

What will happen if the ptsd is not treated? People with ptsd are at increased risk of panic disorder, agoraphobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social phobia, specific phobia, mdd, and somatization disorder. Among people with ptsd increased risk of alcoholism and drug addiction, more problems in communicating and working adaptation. Can the prophylaxis of ptsd? To date, probably not.
