RANDALLSTOWN, Md., July 3, 2024
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Author Mary
Crowner shares her story to help anyone suffering from PTSD
and for the family and friends that support them in The
Overwhelming Pain of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): A True
Military Widow Story ($20.49,
paperback, 9781662899966; $8.99,
e-book, 9781662899973).
My inspiration to write this book is to
help spouses, families, especially those who served and continue to
serve and to assure them that you can make it, you can get the help
you need and that you, are not alone. My pain and my suffering were
to help someone else.
Mary Crowner married a Vietnam
Veteran who was diagnosed with 100% Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
(PTSD.) Upon his returning home in 1971, her turmoil and
repercussions taking the brunt of his PTSD began. She is telling
her relatable story now as a way to help others, whether active
military, retired veterans or family/friend support systems. With
the unspeakable physical and mental abuse Crowner faced from her
husband, she knew that she needed to devise a plan, one that would
give her a way out. The author's goal of this book is to reach
anyone dealing with PTSD or currently in a relationship with
someone who suffers from PTSD, as encouragement to know there is
help and that they are not alone.
When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Crowner
said, "My inspiration to write this book is to help spouses,
families, especially those who served and continue to serve and to
assure them that you can make it, you can get the help you need and
that you, are not alone. My pain and my suffering were to help
someone else. To experience life and its difficulties, can be very
hard on many, but with God's strength, you can make it. The
post-traumatic stress you may have or someone in your family has,
will not cause you to give up. But live and take one day at a time.
I intend to go on tour and visit as many Army bases as I can. I am
70 years old, and my life experience is all about helping someone
else."
Mary Crowner is the mother of
three daughters and one son. She has written more than 150 poems
