PTSD and Moral Injury are soul damaging. Trauma warps our fundamental belief systems-beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world-leaving us in a constant state of uncertainty and self-doubt.Your life is at stake, my friend, and I''m not going to beat around the bush with fancy euphemisms and positive affirmations. I know how serious PTSD is.But, before we get started, we have to have an honest conversation with ourselves. We have to be willing to take that first step.Do you believe change is possible?Do you want to change?Many people who are suffering from Moral Injury or PTSD often feel they don''t deserve to get better. This is toxic shame.Let me tell you a little secret. You Deserve to heal!It''s 100% okay not to feel all-in right now.Let me ask you this instead.Is it possible that you are stronger than you think?

Incorporating information from The Soldier''s Guide to PTSD, this workbook does not waste time cutting through the bull and getting down to brass tacks. Told in the voice of a Soldier-turned-therapist, it is a call to arms, offering facts, empathy, and direction, while urging Service Members to seek the right therapy, helping family members to understand the battlefield, and connecting civilians with the Warrior culture.As a therapist, Virginia Cruse became frustrated with the rumors her clients heard about PTSD that kept them from getting better. Why did so many of them believe PTSD couldn''t be treated? Why did so many feel shame for non-combat related PTSD? Why did some believe they deserved to have PTSD, while others felt they didn''t deserve to get better?All the rumors, worthless information, and toxic shaming hit home hard with Cruse, who herself struggled with her own debilitating PTSD. No one had taken the time to explain PTSD and Moral Injury to Service Members in a way that made sense.Because of that, Virginia Cruse has made it her mission to get the right information out there so people can gain access to the help they need.
