The imbalance causes the cycling of emotions and behaviors based on these changes. Medication along with therapy is the treatment. PTSD is the condition of having a stressful event happen (PTS) and then becoming stuck, mired in that experience. Behaviors develop around trying to deal with the trauma that can often become problem some in that they avoid dealing directly with the emotional response to the trauma. Cognitive and behavioral approaches to therapy such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) are most effective (up to 80%) because this therapy allows the brain to accept the trauma, experience it without avoidance and retrain the brain that the trauma was past, not eminent.

What do you give your boy when it's his birthday, or Christmas? We have charts for my two children, ages 3 and 2, for trying everything on their plates, tidying their toys, helping to clear the table, getting undressed by himself (for the 3 year old), going on the potty (for the 2 year old) and sharing and playing nice (a star which is always awarded to both kids at once. They are proud just to earn a star on the chart (a simple drawing, done by me or my husband in the color of their choice), and when they earn 6 stars for one item they both earn a page cut out of a coloring book, which probably costs about one cent. So it's not about value in money, because I feel you can't put a price on good behavior, it's more about noticing each other's good actions and letting them know you appreciate them. And the charts are not very rigid, they're more like a game of 'paying compliments' when we feel like it, so sometimes we go weeks without adding stars, even when the kids are good, and then they feel like earning some stars so they remind us to draw one after they've cleaned up their mess. My point: good behavior and appreciation for each other within the family can't be measured in money. My second point: give a car as a birthday present, not as a reward, it's too much.
