Understanding PTSD: History, Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment eBook PDF Digital Downloadable | Post Traumatic Stress Disorder | Eye Movement Desensitization

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating mental disorder that is roughly 7-8% of the population, according to the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs. PTSD is trauma or stressor-related disorder. People suffering from PTDS experience a certain set of symptoms brought on by a traumatic event or series of traumatic events. Though PTSD is most commonly associated with people who have served in the military, anyone who goes through a traumatic experience is at risk for developing it. In this eBook we will expand on this topic taking a closer look at the history of PTSD, the main causes and symptoms of PTSD, and the treatments available for those suffering from PTSD. Please note - I am a certified life coach, not a physician so please consult with your healthcare practitioner. However, I can say that I have personally experienced PTSD and have found these suggestions helpful. This eBook is not intended to treat or diagnose any conditions.
