The causes of PTSD range from a single major life-threatening incident (eg war, act of violence, accident, disaster, etc) to a prolonged series of events (eg bullying, harassment, abuse, living with a violent partner, etc).
The symptoms of PTSD include:
sleep problems including nightmares and waking early
flashbacks and replays which you are unable to switch off
impaired memory, forgetfulness, inability to recall names, facts and dates that are well known to you
impaired concentration
impaired learning ability (eg through poor memory and inability to concentrate)
Sorry guys I can't find a detailed account of the Kiranjit Article so will just briefly tell u the details.
There was a history of constant violence for 10 years. One night the husband thraetened to kill her, he fell asleep. Kiranjit went into the room poured petrol around the bedrood and set it alight. As a reulst he suffered multiple burns and eventually died. Despite there being a history of violence. The concept of slow burn anger was not allowed and she was convicted.

(Slow burn anger is when u go thru constant violence and the anger keeps on building up)
