TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Healing Thru Service: The Warrior's Guidebook to Overcoming Trauma in Books
Feb 23, 2021
Healing Thru Service by Sgt Q is a book filled with words, thoughts, and tools to help equip anyone who has suffered through trauma and come out the other side with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). In all honesty, I think this book and the information in it can help people even if they do not have PTSD.
“Never be content with where you are…. This is a battle; therefore, the rules of war apply: If you aren’t taking ground, you are losing it.”
Sgt Q tells his story, his struggles and his triumphs intermingled with honest debriefings of life with PTSD. I loved getting to know Sgt Q and his story through this book. It helped me better understand what some of my family members live with on a daily basis. He explained the different stages or categories of PTSD in easy to understand ways and I enjoyed his “Tactical Applications” at the ends of the chapters and his biblical integration. Sgt Q dug deep into discovering your identity and who you are as a person outside of the military and I believe Sgt Q explained our need for identity in a very engaging and special way.
“No longer a Soldier, you are now a Warrior.”
From a US Marine’s daughter, this book was one I wish my dad had access to years ago and hope it will help him even now. I really enjoyed Sgt Q’s book and ministry and I am looking forward to passing this book along to more people who need the healing words inside. I highly recommend this book to anyone with PTSD, depression, or pursuing what defines you in life. 5 out of 5 stars. Thank you for your service Sgt Q, and thank you for helping Warriors have a family again.
Sincerely,
The Travelers Wife

A fun page-turner
The protagonist is an alcoholic shut-in who suffers from PTSD. For entertainment, she watches old movies and spies on her neighbors. When she sees the woman next door get murdered, she begins to spiral out of control. Did she really see a murder, or did her medications cause her to hallucinate? Is she losing her mind or is something really wrong in the neighborhood?

Pretty damn powerful
A story of so many emotions, I couldn't put it down! My heart broke a little for these amazing men, the trials they go through, the raw pain, love and passion.
Will and Mike fight for each other through the fallout of a military attack, memory loss and injury.
Definitely an adult read, with sex, bdsm, mental anguish/ptsd and descriptions of violent acts. Brilliantly told in a way that keeps you hooked.

I grew up with a PTSD driven Vietnam Vet for a father, so this book reaonated very deeply with me. The father character was portrayed as very true to life. I know, because except for the domestic abuse, he was my father...the push for survival skills, self reliance and the certainty that our own government was out to get us. Kristin Hannah's brought to life the tragedy of our vets, along with the beauty of America's last frontier. Well worth your time.

This was a kindle first pick for me a long time ago, I really liked this story, be it that it was very hard to follow at first. Even though it was short and some details were glossed over that could have welcomed more attention paid to them I found the love story endearing. Because, afterall, this was a love story. I thought it could have focused more on PTSD and PPD but it was a love story and not something that was supposed to focus on the realities of these disorders.
