Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - Effective Preventative Measures Reduce the Cost
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a terrifying and deeply disturbing result of being thrust into life threatening event.
The results often last decades without relent.
High anxiety levels, uncontrollable anger, depression, nightmares and flash backs are all the domain of PTSD and the victim often feels like he or she has just been forgotten because it is difficult for anyone else to understand.
PTSD occurs most often as a result of war, rape, natural disaster or serious accident.
Up to 40% of men and women who are thrust into a battle zone will end up with symptoms of PTSD.
When they come home their families also cop the damage that is done, trying to understand the extreme mood swings, the anger and the depression and withdrawal.
Suicide occurs is three times more likely in the children of PTSD victims that other children.
So the effects are frighteningly widely felt.
Often the victims take a long time to come to terms with the onset of the problem because they see being effected by it as weak and not becoming for the image of a tough battle hardened soldier.
By the time they look for help the unconscious behaviors are already ingrained.
Can anything be done to help this situation? Of course there is, but authorities responsible for the implementation don't seem to understand how to do it! Firstly PTSD and other anxiety based disorders must have the stigma of "mental disease" taken away from them.
For high risk groups such as soldiers and their families, training programs should be implemented immediately to create understanding, both about what causes the problems and about how to avoid the development of PTSD in the first place.
The same highly effective strategies that can be used to defeat PTSD can be taught to potential victims to cut off the demon in its path.
By dealing with it at the onset, the potential for escalation into a full blown psychiatric problem is reduced to a fraction of what is currently occurring.
It is possible to train a mind in this way.
I do it every day with consistent results.
Once your unconscious memory system understands that it is no longer protecting you by creating these symptoms it will drop the behaviour instantly.
By having a good relationship with the thought/feeling reactions coming from your mind you can control the principal symptoms yourself.
By training yourself and your family how to do this, the enormous personal and economic cost of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder can be controlled.
It's time for those in authority to implement such a plan.
It's called preventative medicine, not reactive medicine.
