In the past several decades, millions of refugees fleeing conflicts across the globe have been resettled in other countries, including industrialised Western nations such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and Sweden. Many of these refugees have been exposed to severe – and often repeated – trauma in conflict zones, including combat, torture, sexual violence, and destruction of property. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), perhaps not surprisingly, seems to be a particularly prevalent condition among these refugees. This book discusses how PTSD manifests itself, sometimes differentially, in refugees, and the best practices on how to screen for and diagnose it, as well as treating it in a culturally sensitive fashion.

Free Download Jeremy Lelek, "Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: Recovering Hope "
English | ISBN: 1596384212 | 2013 | 64 pages | EPUB | 843 KB
Post-traumatic stress disorder, a profoundly intense response to profoundly dangerous experiences, manifests itself in fear, terrifying vulnerability, and lack of a sense of control. While these responses are often involuntary, Jeremy Lelek reminds us that they are still responses . . . and, thus, different responses are possible. Here he relates the narrative of creation, fall, and redemption to the experiences of PTSD, reminding us that the gospel speaks to our experiences with danger as part of its redemptive message. He points to the wisdom of God in our suffering and reminds us of the saving grace offered by Jesus, guiding readers to the peace and contentment found in seeking God’s glory.
