Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), sometimes known as shell shock or combat stress, occurs after you experience severe trauma or a life-threatening event. Your body's  defense to address a perceived threat to danger  includes your fight-or-flight, which  occurs when you need to defend yourself or survive the perceived danger of a threatening situation.
