Reseña del editor:

"Healing from posttraumatic stress isn't easy. It takes courage, honesty and determination, and sometimes the process feels like it's uphill for longer than you'd like for it to be. You'll grow along the way, you'll learn so much, and your spirit can expand. It's a journey of many twists and turns, of many colors and hues, and of discovery."

Dark Water: Stress After Trauma begins with general information about trauma and about posttraumatic stress. It is written from the point of view of a layperson. The book continues with thoughts about how posttraumatic stress might feel, about fear and fear-based symptoms, and about how they might affect one's life. It stresses that professional help is always a good idea, necessary regarding decisions about treatment, and that a desire for healing is vital.

The book talks about personal growth that can occur as a result of trauma and overcoming its aftermath. It mentions that in personal outlook there might be differences from pre-trauma to post-trauma because posttraumatic stress creates change, and change can be seen as an opportunity for evolution of the entire person including spirit and psyche. It suggests that posttraumatic stress affects the individual as a whole, including neurophysiology, and in moving forward with one's life it's important to take that into account. Basically the book is written in a conversational style and is generally meant to be supportive of those who are experiencing posttraumatic stress and of those who know people who are experiencing it.

Biografía del autor:

?Growing away from fear and fear based symptoms can open vistas of thought and understanding that otherwise might never have come into being. Life is a winding path and you truly don't always know what is around the corner, but sometimes what you see is breathtakingly beautiful.? Opal Rose is not a clinician or a psychologist but has simply shared thoughts about what could happen as a result of trauma and about moving on. She shares only from her own point of view while recognizing that each person is an individual and when recovering from trauma at least, each person is a work in progress. She found that healing from posttraumatic stress could lead to differences in outlook, a different future or perhaps one that?s been rearranged, and this means looking forward, not back, although there are always pitfalls along the way because it?s life. She mentions that healing neurophysiology is important and that one?s spirit plays a huge role in the healing process. Her experience with posttraumatic stress is the basis for writing Dark Water: Stress After Trauma.
