With this, there is difficulty in coping with everyday activities. There might be panic attacks, insomnia, an untrusting disposition, and confusion. A doctor will treat this with medication and some crisis therapy. Uncomplicated PTSD finds the victim reliving the traumatic event often.

Treatment is most likely medication and therapy.
In Comorbid PTSD, another or multiple psychiatric disorders are generally present as well, such as depression or substance abuse. This occurs when there has been long exposure to traumatic events. Things like sexual abuse in childhood could be one cause of this form of the disease. Some symptoms would include things like eating disorders, substance abuses, destructive tendencies, aggression, rage, and panic. Treatment of this form of the illness is slow and must be handled by a caregiver specifically trained in this area.
