Not to be confused with Coping (psychology).
Coping Strategies is treatment designed for posttraumatic stress disorder within United States Armed Forces personnel and their families by the charitable organization Patriot Outreach. It is primarily distributed through CD-ROM, consisting of a customized mindfulness exercise audio program entitled "Be Still and Know", as well as additional programs on overcoming stress, fear and pain, and field manuals and other resources. The treatment is considered effective by military personnel and is receiving praise[1] in light of 18 veteran suicides that happen each day[2].
