Abstract
|
|
|
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder is the most common diagnosis after a traumatic incident. This study explored the prevalence and effects of traumatic experiences among college students, including fear, shock, anger, helplessness, horror, and guilt. It also explored the goals for treatment of such post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, such as to reduce emotional and physical symptoms, improve daily functioning, and help the person better cope with the event that triggered the disorder. This article describes the use of Family Positioning, a form of family therapy, to help suffers of PTSD and their families better understand and cope with their problems.
