This article presents the definition and nature of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, Psychotic Depression as its co-morbidity, and consequences of untreated cases and presents the models of treatment and psychological mechanisms of coping
Several trauma theorists suggest that cognitive factors have critical impact on the trauma response, in the persistence of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) through negative beliefs and appraisals of ongoing threat [2]
Central in cognitive models of PTSD is the assumption that perception of stressful event as a threat may be at least as important as trauma severity and variation in pre-trauma experience in the development and maintenance of PTSD [3]
