Customer Reviews

Highly Recommended and So helpful!!

I read this book quite a number of years ago. At the time, I did not realize that I had PTSD. I thought that was something only war veterans ended up with. I was not a veteran, although it was pointed out to me years later that I had been through a private "war" of my own. Robert Hicks (who gets called in to help survivors of disasters such as plane crashes) described the kinds of things I was experiencing...and he put a name to it: a failure to scream. He explains how PTSD can be caused by all sorts of traumas. He made sense out of what I was going through and helped me understand how to start turning it around. I also love that he used layman's terms...it was very easy to understand. I ended up buying several copies and giving them to others I knew. I highly recommend this book.
