This was recommend to me by my therapist after I was recently diagnosed with PTSD. It has so much fantastic information, and it makes my life experiences make so much sense. It was quite difficult to get through at times; it covers a lot of heavy topics and stories of trauma, but it’s absolutely worth reading.

A hard read but super inspiring and eye opening about the way trauma affects people and different ways to cope with intense trauma. Not a fix all to problems but a great place to start in order to rebuild your mental health.
