Timothy Kendrick, a U.S. Army Veteran explores solutions for individuals who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. In his first release "PTSD: Pathways Through the Secret Door, Mr. Kendrick Focuses not so much on any tragic events but more on the actions necessary to overcome, walk through without fear, conquer and live a productive life.
In this book, I will not go into details about the horrors of any war; instead, this book will show you how I fight the demons of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. There is no sanity involved in it, because it affects each of us in a different way. The focus of this book is to express my viewpoints about what has kept me going in spite of having 28 jobs in 7 years. That last sentence shows that something was not right about me.
Most of us are bright, intelligent, and full of passion for a career that we believe in. The job choices we make, the spouse we choose, and the way we live our lives is a reflection of our primal positive instincts. Yet we jeopardize the things we love because of an emotional “anchor” or something that “triggers” our subconscious mind.
Excerpt
Fear can seem very real. It is our perceived value of fear that helps or hurts us while finding solutions to our daily challenges and problems. I believe that discourage is the opposite of courage. However, fear can cripple you to a point of not even moving or taking any action because of the unknown. Fear can take on a life of its own. In combat, the Fear is indescribable.
What are we afraid of, fear of failure? Some of the great inventors and leaders of this world have failed before they found the solution they were looking for. Failing is not Failure, giving up is failure.
Are we afraid of success? I had to dig deep on this one because all of the unhealthy input I allowed put in my mind throughout the years. A poverty consciousness is very real.
My solution for fear is to take some kind of action. If that does not work, I take another action. Having walked where we have walked we know that motion creates emotion. When we move something happens to our physiological self and our mind becomes clear. It is what Tony Robbins calls "Changing Your State." Walk through your fear, though sometimes it is trudge through your fear. Either way you must get through it. Write it down, discuss it, and you will become stronger.

This book is the "real deal" written by a man who has suffered from PTSD, unlike most therapists that try to tell you how to cure something but have never actually been through it.
