I wrote about a high school in a small town where a school shooting occurred. Following the incident, many students reported symptoms of PTSD, such as flashbacks, anxiety, and difficulty concentrating in class. One student, in particular, who was in the classroom next to where the shooting happened, started experiencing severe anxiety attacks and had to attend therapy sessions regularly. This student's grades dropped significantly, and they became socially withdrawn, highlighting the profound impact that such an event can have on a young person's mental health.
