Preface
About This Book
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental illness that is developed after any traumatic event, such as war, rape, childhood abuse, accident, natural disaster, personal tragedy, or violence. Based on diagnostic interview data from the National Comorbidity Survey Adolescent Supplement (NCS-A), it is estimated that 5 percent of adolescents have had PTSD and 1.5 percent have had a severe impairment. It was found that the prevalence of PTSD was higher in females (8%) than in males (2.3%) among adolescents. Hence, expert guidance on how to best cope with trauma and the steps that one should take to overcome PTSD is necessary.
PTSD and Coping with Trauma Information for Teens, First Edition provides an overview of PTSD and its causes. It describes the brain and mental health. This book examines the prevalence of PTSD in teens and the populations at risk of PTSD. Information about different types of trauma—adverse experiences, childhood abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional, and psychological abuse—is provided, including the impact of PTSD and recovery. The symptoms and co-occurring conditions of PTSD, along with its treatment, are also covered in this book. A directory of resources provides additional help for people who have undergone trauma and PTSD.
