PTSD in children and young people is a serious mental health condition resulting from trauma exposure. It can significantly impact daily functioning, relationships, and development. Symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance behaviours, and heightened anxiety. Early intervention and trauma-focused therapy are crucial for effective treatment and recovery.
