Article: Posttraumatic growth among health care workers on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8526329/

Some additional notes about posttraumatic growth: Posttraumatic growth (PTG) is the positive psychological change that some individuals experience after a life crisis or traumatic event, typically assessed in the areas of appreciation of life, relationships with others, new possibilities in life, personal strength, and spiritual change. One doesn’t have to experience PTSD to experience PTG, nor does PTG only come after one no longer meets criteria for PTSD. PTG is any positive change for an individual that comes out of a trauma, whether or not they meet criteria for a trauma-related disorder or are still experiencing symptoms of said trauma.
