Conquering the Demons from the Holocaust
Each night after falling asleep, the demons keep coming back. They personify the millions of victims of the Second World War; infants, adolescents, young men and women, and the elderly who suffocated in the gas chambers or were burnt or shot or who starved to death. The terrible pictures return in the dreams of the survivors and the survivors keep re-experiencing the tragedy over and over.
Despite the fact that over sixty years have passed since the war, the enormous impact of Holocaust Trauma upon the survivors becomes even more apparent, because for them, the passage of time has made it even more difficult to cope.
