Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder by Kevin Gournay

A traumatic event can turn your world upside down - but there is a way out. Once thought to be a rare condition, PTSD is a natural reaction to disaster and trauma in our lives. In addition, up to 25% of people have significant related problems such as anxiety, depression, or substance abuse. Symptoms include flashbacks, emotional numbness, acute anxiety, and physical reactions such as increased heart rate and nausea. This book takes a wide-ranging look at the nature of PTSD after distressing experiences such as war, sexual abuse or rape, natural and man-made disasters, car accidents, or the death of a loved one.
Professor Kevin Gournay is Emeritus Professor at the Institute of Psychiatry, London, and has over 35 years clinical experience in treating people after national and domestic accidents and disasters. Prof Gournay is author of more than 130 articles and books, including two other books for Sheldon Press. He has served on numerous government bodies and is Special Adviser to the UK Joint Parliamentary Committee on Human Rights.
