Description
Case study of a survivor who is relatively mentally healthy.She maintains a high level of well-being via a frequent "witnessing" of her experiences. This case study sets us on the right track: most Holocaust survivors are amazing and inspirational pictures of mental health, rather than pictures of hopeless mental illness.
