Stockholm Syndrome is not a mental disorder; it is a condition of empathy that is said to develope in people who are held by kidnappers for an extended period of time...the kidnapped person identifies and believes what they are told by their kidnappers...it is a form of brainwashing...

Had Stockholm Syndrome, which is not really a mental condition....
Now has Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder which usually results from traumatic conditions. Symptoms include being afraid, having trouble sleeping, not trusting people, acting out, etc.
