I was reading the May 2019 print magazine Oprah (which is also available online) and was intrigued by an article titled “Shifting Tides” by the well-known author and life coach, Martha Beck (pages 82-83).

She was suffering all the classic symptoms including anxiety, insomnia, eating and drinking too much, along with terrible flashbacks. Understandably, the most innocuous rainstorm terrified her.
