Experiencing a natural disaster such as an earthquake can be a traumatic event that leads to the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD can also develop after experiencing other types of trauma such as physical or sexual assault, combat, or a serious accident. Dealing with the long, slow, and painful death of a loved one from cancer or retirement from a successful and deeply rewarding career may be difficult, but they are not typically associated with the development of PTSD. Experiencing an "empty nest," while an emotional transition, is also not typically associated with the development of PTSD.
