PTSD in General In Traumatic Stress: The Effects of Overwhelming Experience on Mind, Body, and Society , edited by Bessel van der Kolk and colleagues, several of the world's leading experts on PTSD attempt to summarize the current state of knowledge about the effects of trauma on psychological, biological, and social systems, and to examine the interrelationships among these different realms. They present a range of treatment options that have been developed for different trauma populations over the past two decades. The scientific aspects of traumatic stress are covered by Matthew Friedman and colleagues in Neurobiological and Clinical Consequences of Stress . They examine basic science studies of stress from a variety of approaches, and describe animal models of neurobiological processes that have heuristic value for clinical theory on the pathophysiology of PTSD. Later chapters discuss laboratory and clinical abnormalities detected in human subjects exposed to normal stressors and in PTSD patients exposed to traumatic stressors. Research findings applicable to the detection, diagnosis, and psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy of PTSD are also reviewed.

Extractions: Those recovering from a traumatic event - such as a school shooting or a major crash - are at risk of severe psychological harm. The main risk is that they will suffer post-traumatic stress disorder, which can lead to painful memories striking the victims at any time. What is post-traumatic stress disorder? The syndrome is a disturbing psychological condition where people relive painful memories against their will. This leads to feelings of isolation and a sense of losing control - patients sometimes turn to alcohol or other drugs as they attempt to get rid of the memories. It is also known as shell shock because it first came to prominence when soldiers in the First World War were afflicted by memories of the horrors they saw in the trenches. Dr Matthew Freidman, of the US Department for Veteran Affairs, says the experience is like living through the original event a second time. "It is like a psychic time machine," he says.

Extractions: Site Search The process of identifying an emotional disorder is a difficult one for many reasons. For instance, it cannot be stated with certainty that something "goes wrong" in the brain, causing a child to act in a particular way. And, contrary to early psychiatric theories, it is impossible to conclude that a mother or father did something "wrong" early in the child's life, causing an emotional or behavioral disorder or mental illness. Experts continue to disagree on whether emotional disorders have a genetic component or whether they are "caused" externally or internally. Promising research in the field of nuclear medicine has shown that the actual brain function - the way information is received and processed - is different for children with some types of emotional disorders than for children who do not have those problems. Sometimes it is difficult for parents to seek an emotional assessment for their child, even when they perceive it may be needed. The realization that a child's behavior is not appropriate is often painful, and personalized as a failure of the parent. Many parents are afraid their child may be inappropriately labeled; the array of diagnoses, medicines and therapies have not been agreed upon by all specialists in the field. Still other are turned off after obtaining an assessment for their child only to discover that the evaluator believed that emotional disturbances originate in family dynamics, and that "parenting skills" classes were the best way to address the child's problems.
