Anxiety Disorders VS PTSD

In my clinical practice I work often with women who have survived extensive childhood trauma. Most experience flashbacks and triggering of the original trauma. I have also had at least one client with a diagnosis of anxiety disorder as well as a traumatic past. Where do you draw the line between the two conditions, Barbara, and what do you see a client with anxiety disorder and PTSD needing additionally?
