Are there any stories or historical documents alluding to PTSD in Roman Era soldiers?

I understand that PTSD is obviously common today, but wouldn't the brutal hand-to-hand combat of the Roman Era be even more traumatizing? My professor brought up the idea today so I was going to seek out some answers. Thank you all!

Hiya, this is not meant to discourage any new answers coming in, but I think you might find the relevant part of the FAQ helpful and interesting.
