Posttraumatic stress disorder
The war has resulted in lower socioeconomic statuses of Bosnia's citizens, raised new health concerns, caused epidemiological changes, and changed the focus of the community. Some of the environmental factors that have had an effect on health include limited trash disposal sites, water shortages, and infrastructure destruction. Smoking is a large problem, as well as increased drug and alcohol use after the war. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as other psychological traumas, have appeared in high numbers after the war.
