I am a Marriage Family Therapist Trainee who has suffered from severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder for over 15 years.

Although this treatment has been helpful, I believed that my PTSD symptoms were a life-sentence, which included anxiety, fear, phobia's, bodily sensations, depression and a sense of ... 		  
  







  
  
We Are All in Shock: How Overwhelming Experiences Shatter You and What You Can Do About It2 reviews
Stephanie Mines

New Page Books, 2003

A Powerful Guide to Healing
When I first saw the title, I felt a bit of a shock go through me. WE ARE ALL IN SHOCK grabbed my attention immediately, and as I began to read this amazing book and learn about Stephanie Mines' definitions of shock, I was hooked. WE ARE ALL IN SHOCK delves into a subject matter most of us have experienced, yet few of us have ever faced up to or dealt with in a conscious manner, and no doubt it ... 		  
  







  
  
Getting Anger Under Control: Overcoming Unresolved Resentment, Overwhelming Emotions, and the Lies Behind ...3 reviews
Neil T. Anderson, Rich Miller

Harvest House Publishers, 2002

Grounded in the Word
The author's are extremely grounded in the Scriptures and this book will help you be grounded too. It functions a lot like a workbook once you get past the first 2/3, which is very helpful for this sort of thing. The authors by no means intended this as a quick fix for the reader. The answer to your problems with anger can't be dealt with via methods but only through God's grace. This book, ... 		  
  







  
  
Making Peace with the Things in Your Life: Why Your Papers, Books, Clothes, and Other Possessions Keep ...27 reviews
Cindy Glovinsky

St. Martin's Griffin, 2002

A different way to look at your stuff (clutter)
As others have written,I too have read many, many, MANY clutter, organizing, packrat books. I still have so many, they have contributed to the clutter. This was one of the good ones. My problem is not organizing my stuff-- I want to get rid of it. Most books give you detailed file organizing and specific instructions. I wanted to know WHY I couldn't let go of so many things. This may not be ...

Mountain in My Rearview Mirror: A Guide to Overcoming Overwhelming Obstacles2 reviews
Bill Butterworth

Tyndale House Publishers, 2008

Interesting and Engaging...
With stories of physical and emotional triumphs and failures Bill Butterworth shares encouragement and his testimony of God's faithfulness to him through trials and dark, dark nights. Surprisingly meaty scriptural teachings accompany common sense examples, inspiring stories and humor. The short to-the-point but deep chapters make Mountain a read that would be easily digested in short meals, ...

"Chaplain Ray" Giunta

Thomas Nelson, 2002

A very fine workbook
If you are searching for an interactive workbook that will benefit you in the greif recovery progress and if you would like that workbook to be from a firm Christian position, then "Grief Recovery Workbook" is what you need. I have read through it alone, but I believe it would be best used by a group. Maybe you should lead one in your church? 		  
  







  
  
Writing For Emotional Balance: A Guided Journal To Help You Manage Overwhelming Emotions3 reviews
Beth Jacobs

New Harbinger Publications, 2005

Learn to Control Your Emotions More Than They Control You!
I love the personal and non-judgmental tone of this book! Dr. Jacobs clearly cares about her readers and wants all of us to learn how to manage our emotions better when they get out of hand. Happily, she offers a lot more than just talk. There are 33 exercises in the book plus space to respond to them. In some of the exercises, you get to know yourself better, and in others you practice the ... 		  
  







  
  
Traumatic Stress: The Effects of Overwhelming Experience on Mind, Body, and Society7 reviews

The Guilford Press, 2006

Highly clinically relevant
As a 2nd year psychiatry resident, I only recently discovered this text, however, am finding it incredibly helpful in understanding my patients. Although there are currently no plans for an updated edition (per the publisher as of November 2005), the material is still very relevant as far as the developmental effects of traumatic stress. I would highly recommend this to anyone who works with ... 		  
  







  
  
Edward's Overwhelming Overnight (Edward the Unready)2 reviews
Rosemary Wells

Dial, 1995

A wonderful book with an unusual and important message
I loved this book and so did my son. It is SO hard to find children's books that say that it's okay to be behaviorally a little different. So many books say it's okay to be different in other ways, but there is not much out there for the child that might be not ready to try new things as eagerly as their peers. Most books seem to tell them to "go ahead, try it, in the end it will be great" ... 		  
  







  
  
Introduction To Philosophy4 reviews
William James Earle

McGraw-Hill, 1991

Intro to philosophy review
This book made me a student of philosophy. I never knew philosophy could be so interesting and I was pleasantly surprised that even I could grasp the basic of the activity. It really demonstrates that philosophy is a lot more approachable than I imagined. Do not move a step forward into philosophy until you've read this book. You will not regret this purchase at all.

What an amazing achievement. Antoniak takes life's most problematic tasks and turns them into easily followed step by step processes. From the monumental -- buying a home -- to the mundane -- shopping for a used car -- Lifemaps offers solutions. Buy this book and you won't need to fill up your shelves with lots of other how-to books. Since I bought it I've used it dozens of times...and I've ... 		  
  







  
  
The Overwhelming: A Play1 review
J. T. Rogers

Faber & Faber, 2007

a worthy new playwright
As a playwright, I make it a point to look for and read new works that seem to be moving in a bolder and newer direction for the world of theatre. This play was one I picked up on a whim, and one that I found to be everything I could have hoped for in a new work from a writer I had never heard of before. The play is thought provoking, daring, insightful and refreshing all at once. As I read, I ... 		  
  







  
  
God Said It, Don't Sweat It: How to Keep Life's Petty Hassles from Overwhelming You3 reviews
Neil Clark Warren

Thomas Nelson Pub., 1998

REALLY does put life's petty hassles in perspective!!!
How simple it is to turn frustration into peace. The author takes one bible quote and in one or two pages explains and applies it to life's everyday hassles. By the time I read one every day, hassles really become petty! The author's writing is clear and easy to read, and he makes you feel as though you can effortlessly apply each one to your everyday life. I felt as though each one was a ... 		  
  







  
  
Overwhelming Odds3 reviews
Susan O'Leary

Mahaon, Kompanija, ZAO, 2004

Truly Inspiring
Perhaps I'm a bit biased as I am John's first cousin, but I found this book to be truly inspiring. It's so amazing what he was able to go through without ever complaining. I also got some true religious insight through reading this book... it's hard to deny the effect of prayer on the outcome of the story. 		  
  







  
  
Cave of Overwhelming: A Collection of Poems1 review
Cicely D'A Angleton

Britain Books, 1995

finally some real poetry
Boy, can she write! Tales of French anti-heros and heroines during the Middle Ages. Cicely Angleton can spin a poem about things we should remember from History but only learned for the exam. I love "Night and Day" about Brenda Frazier, the 30s deb. and "The Monk of Jumiege". Some fascinating, sad and witty subject matter. Dives deeply but keeps one's interest moving and grooving. Never a ... 		  
  







  
  
The Overwhelming Urge1 review
Andersen Prunty

Eraserhead Press, 2008

Save Our Sandwhiches
The Overwhelming Urge has a certain underlying rhythm to it, like the dots and dashes of an SOS distress call. These shorts roll over the reader, wave upon wave, drawing a haplessly logical audience further from shore or any other recognizable reference point. Is it reasonable to wake up with laser beam eyes? Perhaps. Does it follow that if everyone in a village was named Johnson, and they didn't ...

Sometimes Overwhelming

powerHouse Books, 2008

"Arlene Gottfried is a photographer with an eye and a mind on the city streets?an ?insider? with an ability to capture images of life that are raw, real, hard-edged, and caustic, and at the same time affectionate, funny, and loving." (Photo Review) Before gentrification, New York City was a gritty and inspiring place. And in its midst was Arlene Gottfried, whose eye for the sublime caught it all. SOMETIMES OVERWHELMING, her second powerHouse ...
