Survivor Guilt
Survivor guilt or survivor's guilt (but also survivor syndrome, survivor's syndrome, survivor disorder and survivor's disorder) is a mental condition that occurs when a person believes they have done something wrong by surviving a traumatic or tragic event when others did not. ''' happens when individuals feel guilty after they survive a near death or traumatic event when their loved ones parished.   It can cause similar depressive symptoms associated with PTSD.   Niederlande first introduced the term do describe the feeling of punishment many of the Holocaust survivors felt for surviving their loved ones. '''

The experience and manifestation of survivor's guilt will depend on an individual's psychological profile. When the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV (DSM-IV) was published, survivor guilt was removed as a recognized specific diagnosis, and redefined as a significant symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Summary Statement:

The comments made in my peer reviews had to do with adding more about the history in the lead, and also adding more recent sources in the last 10 years. I found a great article that deals with how the concept of survivor guilt came about that is recent and peer reviewed. It has many sections on the history, how to deal with, and who all can be affected by this condition.

A lot of changes were made to the lead.

Other peer reviews talked about adding a History statement in the lead because it is mentioned in the article. That has been added using a credible, peer-reviewed journal article that has the most up to date information on this topic that I can find.

One review mentioned adding more things from peer reviewed articles to make the article stronger. I plan to implement a lot of the ideas mentioned in this most recent article published having to do with empirical, theoretical and clinical data on survivor guilt.

Another review talked about adding pictures but I've already added 2 cited pictures to the article and its not that big. I do plan on adding maybe a graph showing statistics on individuals going through survivor guilt.

I plan to include some scenarios that encompass the tragedy of some of these events and how survivor guilt can happen to individuals today. I can add real life scenarios involving a car accident where the passenger parishes, and how that may affect a driver who was not at fault but still feels guilty.

The last section that I would like to add had to deal with specific symptoms and treatments for survivor guilt along with examples of how people with survivor guilt get through life.
