My Silent War PDF Download

According to Natalie Knight, Natural Healer and Health Coach, "The Silent War is a raw, bluntly honest, inspiring guide to rebuilding lives, perceptions and relationships after Combat or other traumatic events. PTSD is not just a soldier thing." This is literary journey into the mind and life of someone who is dealing with PTSD. Please don't confuse the purpose of this book, it is not written as a medical journal or a psychological textbook, or even as a life empowerment book. This is a real life toolbox with practical working techniques and knowledge to help rebuild misperceptions and misjudgments both, by and toward the person experiencing PTSD and those around them. Using his own life and experiences in dealing with PTSD after combat as a base line for discussion and point of reference for the reader, Cloud Mykals has created a guide, ready to be put into use, so as to give perspective, and provide hope to the person struggling with the PTSD; as well as, the loved ones of this person. Often times family members or loved ones of those suffering from PTSD are hurting as well from the rifts caused in their relationships due to simply not having a point of reference or understanding as to what or even how their loved one, thinks or truly feels. Many time the one with PTSD can not convey these thoughts or feelings and thus vital communication begins to breakdown. The combination of being unable to convey these feelings to the loved one, and the misconceptions, misunderstandings, and misperceptions between them can cause larger revolving issues of resentment, bitterness, confusion, uncertainty, then feelings of being unloved or unwanted and alone within themselves begin to take hold. These feelings only heighten the ever-darkening effects of PTSD. This can cause rising tensions on both sides and without help can all to often lead to disastrous ends, with both, hearts, and relationships damaged on every level and let's not forget the more tragic ends such as veteran suicide. Cloud Mykals knows from experience that dealing with these dark, powerful, and at times seemingly hopeless thoughts and negative feelings can leave you in a world of confused reality, plagued by psychological shifts which have physical effects. It can become both depressing and frightening. Cloud spent many years going through this dark and twisted rollercoaster and on going effects of PTSD after his time in combat during the IRAQ War. For many others it may an abusive relationship, a life changing accident, or a myriad of other scenarios. Whether it is you or your loved one who may be a veteran or a civilian matters not, the heart and mind of us all as well as the pain we experience is much the same. "I have compiled years of my personal life, experience and knowledge in this book to show that lives can be rebuilt and relationships can be mended. "The Silent War" within can be won. A new life awaits, I have already lived exactly where you are; perhaps, our exact situations bringing us to those places were different but either way we are much the same. I extend my hand in friendship to you. Your life has meaning, and worth and you are not alone. Take the knowledge in this book as my gift to you, and pass it on with more of your own to others so that together we may save as many lives and relationships as we can." - Cloud Mykals
