In my latest book Race for Redemption, the character Fallon McElliot is coping with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD). Other characters in the book also have signs of PTSD. If any of this resonates with you, or you think that someone you know is experiencing PTSD, below is a list of some resources that may be helpful. Keep in mind that these resources are not meant to replace a consultation with a mental health professional who can help diagnose and discuss treatment options.

PTSD Basics – PTSD: National Center for PTSD
