“… 24 A significantly higher symptom severity with respect to trauma experience has been found among girls compared to boys. 25 Sex differences in trauma experience were also observed in this study. The symptomatic group rate of female students was higher than that of male students on all the scales at baseline assessments ( Fig.…”

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to examine post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, and complicated grief in Korean high school students who experienced a peer suicide.MethodsA total of 956 students were included in the statistical analysis. One week after a peer suicide, a school-based crisis intervention program was conducted. The cohort was followed-up at one week and five months after a peer suicide. The program consists of screening tests, educational sessions, and further interview with psychiatric specialists for the selected group. Screening tests were conducted for all students to measure the Child Report of Post-traumatic Symptoms (CROPS), the post-traumatic stress symptoms (The University of California at Los Angeles post-traumatic stress disorder [PTSD] reaction index; UCLA-PTSD-RI), the anxiety symptoms (The Korean-Beck Anxiety Inventory; K-BAI), the depressive symptoms (The Korean-Beck Depression Inventory-II; K-BDI-II), and the complicated grief reaction (The Inventory of Complicated Grief; ICG). For statistical analysis, the SPSS Statistics 21.0 program was used.ResultsAt baseline and five months follow-ups, 8.6% and 2.9% of the students showed post-traumatic stress symptoms. At five months follow-up, there was a statistically significant decline in the post-traumatic stress symptoms, anxiety, depression, and complicated grief among the ‘trauma group.’ A higher proportion of the female students showed post-traumatic stress symptoms after the incident of peer suicide than the male students.ConclusionSchool-based crisis intervention helps improvement of trauma-related symptoms. It might be an effective way to prevent suicide spreading among students by alleviating trauma-related symptoms.

“…The response occurs in the form of intense fear, helplessness, or horror. In acute stress disorder symptoms resolve within 1 month of the occurrence of the traumatic event, while in PTSD symptoms are present for more than 1 month afterwards [73]. PTSD is an interaction between a subject, a traumatogenic factor and a social context and is defined as intrusive re-experiencing of the trauma, avoiding traumatic reminders, and persistent physiological arousal [74].…”

Anxiety is a biological warning mechanism with intense feelings of fear that prepares us for action. It should be differentiated from the normal fear response. Anxiety disorders are one of the most common psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents, but they often go undetected or untreated. Childhood anxiety may be underestimated due to various factors. The prevalence of anxiety in a community depends on many factors, including race, sex, type of the anxiety, and the adequacy of the epidemiological studies. The development of anxiety disorders in children and adolescents involves interplay between heritable factors, developmental factors, cognitive and learning factors, neurobiological factors including genetic, social and environmental factors. Anxiety disorders in children and adolescents are often associated with other psychiatric disorders including other anxiety disorders, depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder, substance abuse, and other psychiatric disorders. Management of anxiety disorders in children needs and integrative teamwork including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulnessbased psychotherapies, psychodynamic psychotherapies, and psychopharmacologic treatments.

Epidemiological data on the chronicity of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in relation to trauma type and underlying pathways are rare. The current study explored how PTSD symptoms change over time across different trauma types and examined mediators of their persistence. A trauma-exposed community sample, whereof approximately one quarter met diagnostic criteria for PTSD, provided retrospective data on the duration of PTSD symptoms. Those who remitted and those who had not at the time of assessment were compared regarding worst trauma, symptom severity, comorbidity, demographic and treatment-seeking variables. Time to remission was estimated using Cox proportional hazard models including candidate predictors of remission. A mediated survival analysis was used to explore indirect pathways that explain trauma-specific differences in remission times. Both the full sample and PTSD subgroup were analyzed separately. Overall, lower socio-economic status, lifetime and childhood sexual trauma, symptom severity, comorbid depression and past treatment were associated with non- and longer remissions. PTSD avoidance symptoms and comorbid depression were found to mediate longer remission times after lifetime or childhood sexual trauma. Our findings provide insight into the mechanisms and complicating factors of remission from PTSD symptoms after trauma, which might have important implications for therapeutic interventions.
