Graphic!
This is brilliant but super graphic. I don't see why it needed to be so graphic (repeating people's exact accounts of their abuse). Could have been a lot shorter without these lengthy accounts. Quite triggering. What about vicarious trauma?

Understand trauma and how it affects a body
Great book. Helped me gain a deeper understanding of my own trauma, how it affected my behaviour, thought patterns and so on. It can be triggering, as there are a lot of descriptions of the trauma, but examples of other people dealing with similar issues make you feel less alone and tools discussed to treat trauma give you hope for a better future.

Resolution of trauma begins with understanding
This wonderfull book is a game changer. In a clear, evidence based manner Dr van der Kolk describes the aetiology, pathophysiology, the psychosocial impact on individuals and the society as a whole. It outlines the approaches to healing and recovery. In my clinical practice I encounter daily people who unbeknown suffer from PTSD. Vast majority has not been involved in war or catastrophes, yet their unrecognised suffering is too often deeply affecting them and their loved ones existence seemingly without hope. I have used this book successfully in bringing the understanding of this common condition to many and thus promote their healing.
