Well, obvious
B: Persistent re-experiencing
Recurring dream, flashback etc
C: Persistent avoidance and emotional numbing
* avoidance of stimuli associated with the trauma, such as certain thoughts or feelings, or talking about the event(s);
* avoidance of behaviors, places, or people that might lead to distressing memories;
* inability to recall major parts of the trauma(s), or decreased involvement in significant life activities;
* decreased capacity (down to complete inability) to feel certain feelings;
* an expectation that one's future will be somehow constrained in ways not normal to other people.
D: Persistent symptoms of increased arousal not present before
These are all physiological response issues, such as difficulty falling or staying asleep, or problems with anger, concentration, or hypervigilance.
E: Duration of symptoms for more than 1 month
I'll post the rest in different post.
