I watched this and really see this as an attempt to monopolize on the medical conditions of others for his personal profit. An author wanting to promote his book because he has an educated certificate that says he is to be publicly trusted as a professional and his work should be purchased because he is documented as expert. That is all I heard in this interview.
He offers no defining defintions of PTS or PTSD than what we can not already find on the Internet for ourselves even if not affilated with PTS or PTSD personally. Medical professionals with or without criteria to treat PTS or PTSD and diagnose all have one agenda in common anyways and that is to take our monies.
Until we start taking the advice, social definitions and majority acceptance and creating our own educated resources of what works for us and does not, all we do is keep a frenzy going on about who is right or wrong and fueling the medical controversies behind the medical professionals pockets.
These types of controversies and this author's intention is only to gain profits for him self and those affialited with him. It is not for the care of no one but his common interest seekers of financial gain. Subliminal messaging at it's finest by targeting individuals who have these disorders.
This is supreme capitalizing on medical conditions. Profits for medical insurance companies who can limit or restrict coverage to individuals with PTS or PTSD. It is a marketing gimic and nothing more by a very composed and intelligent doctor who found a topic to make a dollar off of and to add his two cents to an already complicated medical world of PTS and PTSD definition, treatment, and to the confusion of accurate diagnosis and adding to the confusion of PTS and PTSD sufferers prompting many to buy his book.
It does not change the symptoms for PTS or PTSD sufferers. It does not change who is affected by PTS or PTSD. It does explain why some are more subjected to PTSD than others and it does not offer relief to no one but his monetary bank roll he is trying to grow.
I only watched it because I read the comments here and wanted to see for myself what the deal was about. This is only my opinion on it and no, I will not buy nor read his book. I learn from other's who actually know and have been there and from their experiences. We are all forced experts of PTS or PTSD because we had no choice that we were subjected to traumas that our mind and bodies could not process efficiently or effectively. Any disorder that disrupts routine of a person's ability to function and cope through normal stresses in life is a disorder or illness to me.
Sleep deprivation is my biggest problem with PTSD because of the lack and quality of sleep I have with nightmares, terrors and the inability for my body to rest as it should. Anxieties that I can not control nor explain are my biggest problems. These two issues limit my daily routines to follow any specific schedules.
I am limited to taking medications because they can have adverse reactions increasing seizures in me. When I was in my 20s, my body and brain was like on speed and youthful enough that I could follow routine, handle the stresses and function in a job. As time goes on my body, my brain, and my mind know the limitations that I have to work through to sustain my health. For any person to say they are a professional and try to classify all individuals in the same category as this is ridiculous.
We share disturbing symptoms. We share different therapies. But we can not share the same "this will work for all" mentality of standardized treatments because each of us have PTSD for different reasons with different effects to our mind, brains, and bodies. Until research is done on the brain, central nervous system, chemical imbalance and electrolyte fluctations that occur with PTS or PTSD we are no closer to finding out who is more prone to these disorders than others and how to treat them.
I disagree that PTSD or PTS should be announced publicly as beneficial to the people who have it. This is misleading and guiding building stigma to society. This is horrible and in bad judgment. Many of us who have became mature or wiser in our conditions is not because of a choice we had but because we were forced to deal with the things we could not control and our minds and body could not properly process the information or trauma given to us. This only adds to the stigma and public ignorance of PTS and PTSD.
This "news" was a huge disguise of subliminal messaging for profit. Nothing more. Until we start reading between the lines of what we read and see on television, we'll believe anything and buy anything.
