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.

Sometimes very hard to read the stories of trauma written here. But the new developments on how to help people deal with those traumas especially in the final five chapters of the book are just incredible. It makes me want to study those techniques more!
