Most often, PTSD occurs after a serious threat to one's life or the life of a loved one, or following a sudden and traumatic loss, such as of one's home. PTSD has been caused by such varied stressors as violent assault, rape, military combat, tornadoes, earthquakes, airplane crashes, torture, fires, kidnapping or severe car accidents. As some ARDS patients and their family members realize, it can also be caused by a sudden life-threatening illness.
