New book details how to overcome the fear that lies at the heart of post traumatic stress disorder, depression and suicide
United States of America (Press Release) July 9, 2008 --
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, (PTSD), is an anxiety disorder that can occur after an individual has been through a traumatic event. During this type of event, people believe that their lives or others' lives are in danger. Most feel that they have no control over what is happening. PTSD can lead to depression, ranging from mild to severe, or possibly even suicide.
Not everyone can afford the high cost of mental health treatment. Often, it is up to the individual to develop strategies to cope with the overwhelming toll PTSD can take on their lives. 'A Laymans Guide To Managing Fear', written by author Stanley Popovich, is a low cost, comprehensive resource that can help people develop and implement effective strategies and techniques to help them deal with PTSD, depression and thoughts of suicide.
Experts believe that Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome occurs in about 30% of Vietnam veterans. That number is a bit lower for those who have served in Desert Storm, coming in a just around 10%. The Afghan war caused PSTD percentages of between 6% and 10%, and the Iraq war numbers range from 12% to 20%.
“When your fears, depression, and PTSD have the best of you” said Mr. Popovich, “it is easy to feel that things will not get any better. This is not true. There is a great deal of help available in today’s society and the best way to deal with your fears is to find effective ways to overcome them. The key is to be persistent in finding those answers that will work for you.”
Mr. Popovich wrote 'A Layman's Guide To Managing Fear” as an all-encompassing “resource that summarizes all the techniques that are available in managing fear.”
The National Institute of Mental Health reports that approximately 1 in every 5 adults suffer with the anguish of a fear-related disorder. Even more sobering are the fact that:
18 million American adults will suffer from depression this year
9.1 million American adults have an anxiety disorder
2.4 million American adults will experience a panic disorder this year
5.2 million American adults will experience Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder this year
Fear exacts untold costs upon American society. Mr. Popovich states that “I wanted to write a book that was to the point and focused only on those strategies that will manage the fear and anxiety so many of us are facing now. The book is geared towards any person who struggles with fear, anxiety, depression, panic disorder, or even suicide. Of course, no book is a substitute for the guidance of a professional. Dealing with this fear and uncertainty can be quite difficult, but there is hope in finding the answers to overcoming fear. ”
