This document provides a comprehensive overview of Acute Stress Disorder (ASD). ASD is a temporary psychological reaction that occurs within a month of a traumatic event. Influenced by a combination of neurobiological, genetic, and psychosocial factors, its pathophysiology involves hormonal changes and alterations in certain areas of the brain. The symptoms of ASD typically appear immediately following a traumatic event and can include intrusive memories, negative moods, dissociative symptoms, avoidance of reminders of the event, and increased arousal. Risk factors include previous trauma, mental health disorders, experiencing a traumatic event involving intense fear, helplessness, or horror, lack of social support, additional stressors, and certain personality traits. The management of ASD involves psychological and pharmacological treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy and sometimes medication. The prognosis varies, but most individuals recover within a few weeks with appropriate intervention and support.
