An anxiety disorder similar to PTSD affecting 3D Artists, digital modellers and CAD designers caused by stressful or distressing 3D modelling experiences.

Someone with PTMD often relives the traumatic event through dreams and flashbacks, and may experience feelings of isolation, irritability and guilt.

This particularly manifests as an adverse reaction to songs heard during the event which trigger flashbacks and is thought to affect approximately 1 in 1 people who experience modelling trauma.

Sufferers may also have problems sleeping, such as insomnia, and find concentrating difficult.
"Every time I hear that song, it triggers my PTMD (Post-traumatic Modelling Disorder). I'm transported back to trying to resolve that corner"
"I couldn't sleep last night - PTMD. All I saw when I closed my eyes was vertices"
