Gentle, thorough overview of PTSD
I'm fairly well versed in PTSD literature at this point, and recognize that many of the books tend to refer to other sources. This one is no exception, using those references to share clinical definitions and treatments, as well as steady encouragement along the way.
An example:
"It is important to remember that having PTSD doesn't make you a failure. Instead of viewing it as a weakness, view your brain as a piece of technology that is just trying to find the best way to run efficiently. Sometimes it doesn't always get it right, and this is okay. The important part is that you acknowledge that your brain may require some help and that you address the issue as quickly—and kindly—as possible."
Lovely and kind, a trait many analytical books fall short on.
I could point to other references to say why some of the things listed within can be seen as a fallacy, but it all comes down to what you read and believe. If there's a more optimistic view, it's presented in this volume, which can have both positives and negatives. Examples from what I've also found while reading this and other sources:
Positive, if you read that PTSD is curable, you will head into therapy with a touch of optimism that can be so difficult to find. You'll be open-minded about exposure therapies, and they may help. You'll do crazy things like appropriate self-care, and you will find yourself anew.
Negative, even after being warned about relapses, each time they happen you feel like being cured is a farce. (Disclaimer: I'm in the camp that it cannot be cured, but symptoms managed and eased). Exposure therapy wasn't the treatment for you, and triggered more nightmares and fiercer flashbacks than usual.
That said, the book shares that therapy is not one size fits all, and it may take multiple tries to see what works for you. As with the rest, it's stated in a fairly light fashion, but emphasized clearly. Work on your personal challenges, do not excessively medicate or fall into poor coping mechanisms to hide. Sound advice, often easier said than done.
For those new to PTSD, this is a solid resource and jumping point to see what else may help. With everything else I've read previously on the subject, I still find a lot of value in this book.
The author gave me a copy of the book to review.
