I Have PTSD: Reorienting after Trauma

Anyone who experiences a traumatic event feels confused, lost, out of control, unsure, and unsteady—disoriented. This kind of suffering leaves marks, sometimes on the body, always on the soul, and sometimes both. In I Have PTSD, Curtis Solomon helps both those who have suffered trauma, as well as their loved ones, to understand the physical, emotional, and spiritual effects of trauma, while offering gospel hope and practical ways to make that hope real in their lives. Trauma can come into our lives through any number of circumstances, but those circumstances do not derail the plans of God nor determine the trajectory for the rest of your life. God can and does utilize the most horrific suffering imaginable to accomplish his great plans for his people.
• Practical, accessible, and concise guidance on PTSD, written by an experienced trauma expert and counselor.
• Part of the Ask the Christian Counselor series, walking readers through their deepest and most profound questions.
• Gives readers the tools to understand their struggle with PTSD and how the gospel brings hope and healing to post traumatic stress.
• Compact format goes deeper than New Growth Press's popular minibooks without overwhelming the reader.
