Abstract

Abstract: Childhood trauma has been always associated with an increase in the prevalence of mental illnesses. Here, in this paper, we try to investigate and analyse different research papers to understand the relationship between childhood trauma and neurotic and mood disorders. We analysed more than 55 papers from the various sample populations which comprised various age groups. The results showed that childhood sexual and physical abuse is more prevalent in patients with depressive and anxiety disorders. Also, bipolar and neurotic excoriation patients had a history of childhood trauma. This concluded that childhood trauma can increase the risk of developing mood or neurotic disorders. Keywords: Childhood trauma, abuse, neurotic disorder and mood disorder.
