ADHD, anxiety, SAD (social anxiety and season affective), depression, OCD, ODD (oppositional defiance disorder), PDA (pathological demand avoidance disorder), Bipolar, dyslexia, dyspraxia, Irens syndrome, APD (auditory processing disorder), APD (avoidant personality disorder), schizo typical personality disorder, sensory integration disorder, and epilepsy.

That's all I can think of.

To the best of my knowledge, that particular bit of alphabet soup is unrelated, though it might be classified as an anxiety disorder. I am not a Psychologist, but I believe it can happen to anyone who is exposed to some sufficient psychological trauma, for example, being in a war, having been present in New York for 911, etc. I have a young friend who has a bad case of it from having been in the Joplin tornado, ten months ago. She was not badly injured physically, but had to be dug out, and saw entirely too much horror at the hospital where she was taken. It _might_ perhaps happen more easily to someone with a "delicate" neurology. Maybe.

It is an anxiety disorder, and I think I read somewhere it was a common co-morbid of autism, but that it was more because of how people with AS sometimes come off a bit odd and suffer mistreatment from others because of it. But I don't know if there is anything about AS specifically that makes ptsd more likely.
