This research is studying emotional and psychological stress in adults living with congenital heart disease (a heart condition present from birth). Researchers want to understand how certain life experiences related to heart disease may increase the risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and also to learn about resilience—how people recover from difficult experiences.
Many adults with congenital heart disease face significant medical challenges, surgeries, and ongoing health concerns throughout their lives. Researchers want to better understand the emotional impact of these experiences and identify which people may be at higher risk for developing PTSD, so they can provide better mental health support.

You would receive email invitations to complete online surveys from home at your own pace. The first surveys ask about emotional stress symptoms and your ability to cope with difficult experiences—and all questions are optional, so you can skip any you prefer not to answer. If you have significant symptoms on the initial screening, researchers may invite you to participate in a follow-up video conference interview with a trained psychologist to get a fuller picture of your emotional health.
