Posttraumatic Embitterment Disorder: Definition, Evidence, Diagnosis, Treatment

Book Review




Posttraumatic Embitterment Disorder: Definition, Evidence, Diagnosis, Treatment

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/SSRI-Crusaders/message/34154
 
Michael Linden, a physician at the Seehof Rehabilitation Center in Berlin, saw an increasing number of patients with symptoms that he described with a new term: posttraumatic embitterment disorder. After Germany's reunification, Linden observed  an increase in the rates of reactive disorders. Several years later, patients continued to struggle with severe psychological reactions to negative life events. Linden and his colleges argue that such reactions cannot be classified as posttraumatic stress disorder, adjustment disorder, or even depressive disorder, and suggested posttraumatic embitterment disorder as a new reactive disorder.
