About the Book

Jump Start is a recounting of a personal struggle with PTSD resulting from a serious accident many years ago. It is a true story. It is a first-hand account of that struggle, an account which is intentionally written in a raw manner. Jump Start reaches a low point when, in July 2012, the author made a trip to a sporting goods store to buy a gun to end everything, to just make it all stop. One bullet is all he needed. Instead, he walked out of the store without the gun and began the arduous task of not only overcoming PTSD, but trying to understand it. The goal of Jump Start is to raise awareness of PTSD, and to perhaps help explain the effects of PTSD. Many people associate PTSD with the military. Yes, many servicemen and servicewomen are afflicted by PTSD, but PTSD is not restricted to the military. Normal, average people subjected to psychologically traumatic events can also be afflicted by PTSD. The goal of the book is simply to explore the effects and aftermath of PTSD. More specifically, Jump Start shows what someone suffering from PTSD might experience by examining what the author's own experiences. This is not a clinical book; rather it is a firsthand account of PTSD and explains in simple terms what one can expect. It has appeal to those directly experiencing PTSD, as well as those who's loved ones or friends are afflicted by PTSD. In the end, they all are impacted by PTSD.
