A new link between traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder

Another study showing that sustaining a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) makes a person more susceptible to developing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This study shows that the physical blow from a TBI causes physical changes in key part of the brain, which then makes the victim more likely to develop PTSD and anxiety disorders. These types of studies will hopefully help physicians treat, diagnose and prevent PTSD.
