Synopsis
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a natural emotional reaction to a deeply shocking and disturbing experience. The symptoms are surprisingly common and include: sleep problems, impaired memory, inability to concentrate, hypervigilance (feels like but is not paranoia), exaggerated startle response and hypersensitivity, panic attacks, irritability and violent outbursts, joint/muscle pains, and feelings of nervousness and anxiety.
A former sufferer of PTSD, David Kinchin tells his story and those of ten others. He describes in plain language what it is like to suffer from PTSD and explains all the complications the disorder can include. He gives advice on seeking help and the treatments available. Now David Kinchin shares his knowledge and insight in a unique book by a former PTSD sufferer for PTSD sufferers, showing you how to recover and put the experience behind you.

Review
Most people will survive a major trauma but many do not believe this. David Kinchin's compassionate and informative contribution will help them. -- Suzanna Rose, Institute of Psychiatry
This is written in everyday language which is particularly important given that one of the major problems with PTSD is lack of concentration -- Chris Hoare, ASSIST
Trauma survivors will feel vindicated, supported and reassured by reading this keynote book -- Dr Gordon Turnbull, PTSD Treatment Unit, Ticehurst House Hospital, UK
From the Author
This is the book I so badly wanted when I was traumatised. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and my book will help you emerge into the light. I have received letters, faxes and e-mails from hundreds of people who have found something to help them in the pages of my book. Having never written to an author myself, I am deeply moved to receive so many letters of appreciation.
