Summary

This study follows children and adolescents who experienced trauma to see how many still have PTSD or Complex PTSD two years later. Researchers will also look at factors like symptom severity, resilience, sleep, and anxiety that may influence recovery. The goal is to better understand the long-term impact of trauma and what helps or hinders healing.
