It’s a great book, I feel like it’s a must for people who’ve tried it all, podcasts, books, self care articles, etc.
I like that you have to write and think about your past and your family.
I think I’ve actually became closer to my parents while and after reading this book, it helped me a lot just to change a little bit my perspective.
I don’t give it 5 stars just because I felt there were times where the book was very repetitive and used a lot of examples of patients that felt like I had read them before or very similar.
It has a lot of trigger warnings, so I would definitely suggest reading this when you feel ok to do some self exploring and revisit trauma, look out for yourself.
