Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that is triggered by a terrifying event. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is very common in today's society. When a trauma occurs a person often has a delayed reaction that can cripple them for years unless treated. This educational DVD discusses the causes, symptoms, and treatment of this disorder, and was also used as research for the movie "The Manchurian Candidate."
This educational video on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder treatment addresses the enormous problem of trauma and trauma resolution. Trauma has always been with us, but has been on the rise in recent years. The tragedy of the Columbine shootings, and the World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York on 9/11, are only two examples in the United States. As terrorism continues to grow it becomes imperative to truly understand the intricacies of this mental health disorder.
New treatment modalities have been discovered in the past 20 years that help to relieve PTSD quickly and with much less painful emotion than more conventional therapies. This educational DVD presents all of these new treatments.
