Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Before PTSD was recognized, a young Army surgeon was already living it - and writing home to his sister.Letters To Helene From Vietnam, An Outline Of My Descent Into PTSD offers something rare: the real-time psychological record of a combat trauma surgeon - written as the war unfolded. In the tradition of Achilles in Vietnam by Jonathan Shay and The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk, Dr. Gus Kappler engages identical themes: moral injury, emotional numbing, altered identity, delayed reckoning. But here, those elements are not analyzed from a clinical distance. They are lived.During his service at the 85th Evacuation Hospital in Phu Bai, Vietnam, Gus wrote fourteen letters to his sister Helene. What began as updates from a brother abroad became an unintentional chronicle of psychological transformation under relentless exposure to catastrophic injury, moral strain, and unremitting loss.Now, fifty-five years later, those letters are revisited with the clarity of medical insight and lived experience. The result is a longitudinal exploration of PTSD as it develops - not retrospectively reconstructed, but captured in the immediacy of youth and examined through the lens of a lifetime.This is not only a Vietnam story. It is a study in how trauma embeds itself in memory, personality, and professional identity - and how it continues to shape a life decades after the last helicopter lifted off.Both memoir and clinical reflection, this book stands at the intersection of lived trauma and professional understanding. It is essential reading for first responders, police, nurses, firefighters, veterans, physicians, caregivers, and anyone seeking to understand how psychological trauma reshapes not only those exposed - but there is hope.

Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. PTSD is insidious; it does not discriminate, and no one is immune. I returned from Vietnam permanently changed and living with PTSD. I am eighty-six years old, and it wasn't until I read the fourteen letters I wrote to my sister, Helene, from Vietnam that my emotional struggles began to make sense. In Vietnam, I daily witnessed the devastation of war on the body, mind, and soul, and that experience deeply affected me. In reading "Letters," you will trace my self medicating with alcohol and descent into PTSD. When I returned from Vietnam, I did not recognize my induced change and that I lived with PTSD. My wife, Robin, certainly did and demanded I deal with my demons. My journey toward rehabilitation began during my second duty station at Fort Carson, Colorado. There, I bonded with doctors who had just returned from Vietnam. We shared similar demons and realized that our PTSD was not a sign of weakness; rather, it was a predictable reaction to a common horrific wartime environment. Although we were changed, we learned to function in a peaceful society. We seemed fine on the outside, but we were still grappling with our inner turmoil. After fifty-five years, I am still angry and daily find myself reliving my Vietnam. In reading "Letters" you will learn to accept your change as being predictable and unavoidable. You are not alone, unique, or weak. Dismissing stigmatization, seeking out others with similar demons, and sharing stories will lead to healing. I will discuss programs that will prevent or at least modify the severity of PTSD. The US Air Force efforts put the remaining military to shame. There are numerous links available on the Kindle version of "Letters,"down to the molecular level, for an increased understanding of PTSD. This item is printed on demand.
