Adjustment disorders (AD) and PTSD are both maladaptive reactions to stressors. One (AD) is a reaction to a common stressor (death in the family, divorce, illness, etc.), things that happen to nearly all of us sometimes, while PTSD is a reaction to an uncommon stressor (hurricane, assault, etc.), things that rarely happen and when they do, they are very, very terrible. Imagine this scenario: Woman says, “I’m so depressed and nervous. I’ve been this way since my car wreck. I’m a nervous wreck.” How would you go about determining whether this person is experiencing AD or PTSD?

The advantages of e-mail communication.

The first thing most of us do when we get up in the morning is to turn on the computer and check for e-mail messages. This has become a part of our daily routine. We take it for granted that this has been an age-old practice and don't pause to think that it is a product of recent technological revolution. It is a wonder how we ever survived without it. The advantages of e-mail communication are many, and the chief among them are its speed, low cost, and convenience.

Speed is the obvious advantage. Just as our planes, trains, and automobiles are moving ever faster, so are our modes of communication. We can send e- mail around the world in a matter of minutes with no more effort than it takes to press a few keys on the computer. It is this speed that has led to our calling regular mail "snail mail."

E-Mail has also the advantage of being inexpensive. Many people have access to e-mail for free through their work or school. If some people may pay for e-mail through an online service, there is no increase in cost relative to the number of messages sent. It is the same price to send one message to one person as it is to send messages back and forth all day or to a hundred people. Finally, if we consider the costs saved in long-distance phone bills in addition to cost saved in postage, most e-mail users come out ahead.

There is no question that e-mail is convenient. It allows us to send the same message to many people at the same time with little more effort than it takes to send a message to one person. When sending multiple copies of a message, we avoid the trouble of photocopying the letter, printing out additional copies, addressing envelopes, and posting the mail. E-mail is also convenient because it lends itself to an informal style that makes composing a message relatively easy; in addition, readers of e-mail tolerate more mistakes than readers of conventional mail, and their tolerance saves us time.

E-Mail thus gives us the ability to send messages with convenience, speed and little expense. In not too distant a future, "snail mail" is likely to become obsolete, and one can already hear the bell toll for the US Postal Services.
