What are PTSD and OCD?

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can follow a frightening or distressing experience, bringing flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance and feeling constantly on guard. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) involves unwanted, repeated thoughts and the urge to do certain actions to ease the distress. Both are treatable.

Signs you might notice

  • Flashbacks, nightmares or intrusive memories
  • Avoiding reminders of a difficult experience
  • Feeling constantly on edge or easily startled
  • Unwanted thoughts that keep coming back
  • Repeated checking, cleaning or counting
