Additionally, it discusses the current state-of-the-art in terms of psychological treatments, debriefing and drug therapy and concludes with a view of future needs and potential treatment and research direction. Post-traumatic Stress Disorder should be of interest to all the professionals working in the field of psychiatry, but especially to those with a specific interest in the treatment of anxiety disorders.
