Post-traumatic stress disorder is an extremely debilitating condition that can occur after exposure to a terrifying event or ordeal. In The PTSD Workbook, readers determine the type of trauma they experienced, identify their physical, mental, and emotional symptoms, and learn effective techniques and interventions to overcome them. They start with the exercise best suited to relieve their worst symptom then progress to less troubling symptoms, picking up key information about PTSD along the way.

"The authors of this book assume that you can solve post traumatic problems by filling out forms. This assumption is rediculous. "

"I had been in therapy, and still am in therapy, for over ten years. I had a very difficult childhood and a lot of the memories stayed with me and controlled my adult life. My therapist had explained PTSD and I thought I understood it well. This book took me further and really gave me some self help measures which I have used and to an extent rely on. Highly Recommended!

"What do you do when something beyond traumatic happens to you?
In my case,I forgot the whole thing!
But you don't,it's festering in your subconscious.
And then the nightmares came.
To make a long story short,I worked through my traumas with therapy and support groups and I recovered.
This book is one of the tools to be used.
Lots of exercises,excellent resource
Highly recommended."

"I have reviewed a number of workbooks on PTSD. This was the best of many for the subject of childhood sexual abuse trauma. The book is very well organized and deals with all issues after the first 2 chapters of work to insure safety and ability to cope with subject matter. Best when used with a therapist to help guide the progression of the work. Each chapter full of simple, effective exercises to undertake towards the goal of a healing future."
