Dr. Gary Bell's Absurd Psychology

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder -PTSD- is a silent killer of quality of life, family, jobs, relationships and sometimes the people themselves who have it. The good news is that there are many effective ways to heal if not completely cure PTSD. The first victim is the one who experiences acute anxiety with no way to cope with it except stuff it and deny. After 30 days untreated, PTSD takes over and starts to take over the victims emotional intelligence and eventually their personality. Drugs, alcohol, constant irritability and bouts of rage are triggered by anything that reminds the victim of the event(s) and pushes all of the people they love away. They turn inward and continue to close their life off until they have enough and decide to be treated (often never happens). Tune in and learn about this lethal diagnosis and how to end it!
