The Devastating Effects Of Childhood Trauma

David Hosier MSc, "The Devastating Effects Of Childhood Trauma"
English | ASIN: B00H1BI3FA | November 26, 2013 | EPUB | 423 pages | 345 KB

Re-edited November 2014. This book is an accessible and thorough account of the myriad potential devastating effects of childhood trauma, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger, addictions, self-harm, relationship difficulties, obsessive love disorder, sexual hyperactivity, dissociation (detaching from reality), intermittent explosive disorder, personality disorders (particularly borderline personality disorder), attempted suicide / suicide, and many other problems.
It is written as a series of easily digestible articles and can be read right through or dipped in and out of.
The author, David Hosier MSc, was educated at the University of London in the UK and has worked as both a teacher and researcher of psychology. As well as holding two degrees in the subject, he also holds a Post Graduate Diploma in Education. He himself suffered severe childhood trauma and its, in his case, near fatal effects (he spent 5 days in intensive care in a coma on life support following a serious suicide attempt - this was preceded by years of incapacitating depression and anxiety).
It is from these experiences that he drew his motivation to write this book.
