• Trauma can be an illness, an accident, an injury, a loss or anything in life that kicks your ass. 7 or 8 people out of 100 will have PTSD.
• How does our brain handle trauma?
• Trigger is not just the Lone Ranger’s horse – exercise – page 30
• PTSD – what is it and what makes us more likely to be exposed to it? I initially thought it was only something people in the military had or very severe situations. (pages 38-39)
• Understanding what trauma does to our brain is so critical and I’ve experienced this myself in the last 3 ½ years. It’s a topic we discuss in a support group a lot because we struggle with it – one of these things is known as “pumphead” after open heart surgery and being connected to the heart lung machine and the mind doesn’t work quite right for at least a time after surgery. Do you have any recommendations for this sort of situation?
• Tell us about a “normal” day dealing with trauma – pages 41-46
• What if someone in our lives is dealing with trauma and we want to help – what can we do? Pages 49-50
