Anxiety Disorders - Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an extremely debilitating condition In addition, NIMH has a special finding mechanism, called RAPID Grants, http://www.nmha.org/reassurance/ptsd.cfm
Extractions: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an extremely debilitating condition that can occur after exposure to a terrifying event or ordeal in which grave physical harm occurred or was threatened. Traumatic events that can trigger PTSD include violent personal assaults such as rape or mugging, natural or human-caused disasters, accidents, or military combat. Military troops who served in Vietnam and the Gulf Wars; rescue workers involved in the aftermath of the Oklahoma City Bombing; survivors of accidents, rape, physical and sexual abuse, as well as other crimes; immigrants fleeing violence in their home countries; survivors of the 1994 California earthquake, the 1997 South Dakota floods, and hurricanes Hugo and Andrew; and people who witness traumatic events are among the people who may develop PTSD. Families of victims can also develop the disorder. Fortunately, through research supported by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), effective treatments have been developed to help people with PTSD. Research is also helping scientists better understand the condition and how it affects the brain and the rest of the body.

Extractions: New Zealand Reducing stress in working with PTSD clients: The value of a practitioner's guidebook. The amount of empirically-based attention directed towards Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) since its inception in DSM in 1980 has been extensive. The book Treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: A Handbook and Practice Therapy Manual for Therapy Owing to the fact that the book is largely an attempt at organizing numerous handouts, it is important for the reader to read the Prologue/Introduction to get oriented. Some effort has gone into organizing these handouts in a manner that has a logical flow. As a consequence, the book contains eight "sections" as they are referred to that focus on epidemiology/diagnosis, a narrative conceptualization of PTSD, and assessment followed by general and specific treatment procedures and finishing with some additional information/resources. Each section also finishes with a section called "Testing Your Expertise" designed to help consolidate learning from that section. The second section offers a narrative perspective on PTSD from a constructivist epistemological perspective. This section is brief but can be valuable when used within an empirically-based treatment approach. One area of particular value that the handbook goes into some detail on is the use of metaphor as part of cognitive reframing that can give some meaning to events that are sometimes hard to understand. In our own work with anxiety-disordered children and adolescents, we have found that children benefit by being able to call upon their own "Fear Force" or other superhero when coping with emotional reactions to fearful (or related) stimuli including traumatic events (e.g., Kendall et al., 1992; Ronan & Deane, 1997). A strength of this section is in providing lists of examples to describe various emotional states (e.g, metaphors for hypersensitivity, psychic numbing, intrusive ideation, loss) as well as a long list of "healing" metaphors.

Extractions: A R T I C L E Last night, the United States launched a much-anticipated war with Iraq a war that is certain to be characterized by intensive and unprecedented media coverage. Most teachers will have to deal regularly with their students' reactions to, and questions about, the events of that war. To help them do that, today Education World offers educators expert tips on how to address the issues of war and terrorism with their students. Included: Strategies for discussing war and terrorism with different age groups. During the past month, terrorism alerts and talk of war with Iraq have become almost as much a part of daily life in the United States as weather forecasts and traffic alerts. As a result, many teachers have been left wondering how much if at all they should discuss with their students about terrorism and war. How teachers address those topics, experts say, depends on a community's circumstances, students' ages, and the level of concern expressed by the students. Obviously, some children such as those who live near military bases and those who live near sites of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks are affected more than others. But all students can benefit from activities, both inside and outside the classroom, that help them feel more responsible and more confident during unsettling times.

Pregnancy is usually considered a special time in a woman's life. Hopes for the future, a sense of fulfillment as a woman, early bonding to the unborn child,(1) and the expectations of one's partner and family, are factors that contribute to a complex emotional response to pregnancy. The meaning attached to a pregnancy may assume extraordinary importance for a woman. Besides validating femininity, having a child may be seen as the only way to save a marriage, to please a parent, to make amends for previous "sins" (such as an earlier induced abortion) or even to "replace" a child who has died. A couple struggling with infertility may have an even greater emotional (as well as financial) investment in a pregnancy. Thus, a spontaneous abortion can be extremely stressful for the mother, father, family, physician and others in the social support system.

Extractions: "The introduction is powerful in and of itself as it vividly discusses the voices of victims. The theoretical background is one of the most thoroughly written sections that a reader will come across. The therapeutic instructions for NET are detailed and foster confidence in application. The appendixes for informed consent, who is vivo, and the heart-wrenching account of a young man who experiences repeated trauma in war-torn Somalia are extraordinary. The only shortcoming is that that are not enough well-written books such as this.
