Post-traumatic Stress Disorder by David Kinchin
Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a natural emotional reaction to a deeply shocking and disturbing experience, especially one that was life-threatening - and in a world of increasing incidences of violence we are all more vulnerable. An ex-PTSD sufferer (a police officer) tells his story and those of others. He describes in plain language - citing case histories - the course of PTSD and its complications, and he gives advice on seeking help and the treatments available. He shows how: it is possible to put the experience behind you; you can master the memory that remains; counselling can help; and recovery comes from tackling the problem, not avoiding it. This book presents hope for all PTSD sufferers. The reassuring messages are that it is possible to regain control from the trauma's hold over your past, and that you can once more face the future positively and get on with the rest of your life.| SKU | Unavailable |
