Trauma can leave lasting marks on anyone, not just soldiers. What helps people heal?
An introduction for teens to post-traumatic stress disorder: what it is, who can develop it, how trauma affects the mind and body, and the treatments and support that help people recover. Short blocks of text and full-color photographs make a broad topic easy to follow.
What is PTSD? Who suffers from it, and why? Scientists and doctors are constantly learning new things about the ways our minds and emotions work and how trauma affects us. PTSD is no longer regarded as something that only happens to combat veterans or first responders. It can happen to anyone--including kids and teens. Like many mental health issues, PTSD is a broad and complicated topic. This book breaks it down for teens using full-color photographs and easy-to-read blocks of text.
