'Coping with PTSD'. A new book is available for download from our site or www.copingwithptsd.com. The book was written to fill a big gap in material available which offers real, practical help with the common day-to-day things those with PTSD have to cope with. For more information, visit here or www.copingwithptsd.com.

'Escaping Victimhood' is a new UK charity which was founded by criminal justice professionals concerned at the lack of support for victims of serious crime, particularly once any court processes are completed. They offer a unique workshop programme for people affected by the trauma of serious crime. Click here for more information.

The important concept of this site is that it is about YOU! It is about sharing experiences which may help others trying to cope with PTSD.

There are several ways you can contribute:

• By posting your experiences and information in the forum.
  
  
• By informing us of useful resources/websites
  
  
• By sending us articles for inclusion in the site.

Anyone who has contact with, or has been diagnosed with, PTSD - no matter how the PTSD developed.

Although we welcome anyone to use this site, please keep in mind that we are based in the UK.

There is a wealth of information on the Internet concerning the theory of PTSD but not much practical advice for living with the condition.

This site was developed by people with PTSD who wanted to establish a reliable resource addressing the emotional and day-to-day problems experienced by those who live with the condition.
