In the past year, sixty-two percent of Cambodians living in the United States have suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and fifty-one percent have suffered from depression, seventeen times that of the US national average of adults. Regarding the prevalence of PTSD within Cambodia, serious research does not exist until now. Although we have to discriminate between local Cambodians and those living overseas, perceptions of psychiatrists and psychologists are that local Cambodians also face a high prevalence of these psychosocial diseases. It is now obvious that many Cambodians today are suffering in their hearts from their previous traumatic experiences.
