Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Corleta may be at risk for developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to the trauma of losing her newborn. Depression is common following the loss of a child, but the specific trauma of the experience may increase the likelihood of PTSD. Dysthymia and cyclothymia are chronic mood disorders and do not necessarily result from a specific traumatic event. Bipolar disorder may involve depressive episodes, but it is unlikely to develop solely as a result of the loss of a child.
