About the Author:

Patrick Ussher followed the Dynamic Neural Retraining System, an intensive six-month limbic rehabilitation program, to recover from POTS. After he recovered, he set about mapping the idea of POTS as a form of limbic system impairment onto pre-existing scientific research into the condition, to see if it could be the 'missing link' which could explain the root cause of the condition. This book is the result of that research. Patrick was also part of the Stoicism Today project from its inception in 2012 until 2016, a collaboration of academics and psychotherapists which provided modernised Stoic resources based on the ancient Greco-Roman philosophy as a way of life. Patrick contributed to the development of three 'International Stoic Weeks' (2012-2014), which were widely featured in the media including on BBC Radio, and in newspapers such as The Guardian, Forbes and The Telegraph. Patrick edited the blog for the Stoicism Today project (https: //blogs.exeter.ac.uk/stoicismtoday) from 2012 until 2016 and has also edited two books: Stoicism Today: Selected Writings (Volumes One & Two). Patrick has a BA and MA in Classics from the University of Exeter, U.K., and currently lives in Dublin, Ireland.
