vigil's review against another edition
bessel van der kolk has spent thirty years in practice which gives the book a somewhat academic, frank edge. it’s very insightful into traumatized individuals across the board, but i wouldn’t recommend it to any traumatized person off the bat due to kolk’s unrestrained tone throughout the book.
i have seen some question the ideas and theories he speaks of in here, but i’m (and probably them as well, if we’re being honest) not qualified to dissect that fully. nevertheless, i think everything in here is worth giving some thought to.

Honestly, thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
It's so accessible and easy to read. Minimal jargon if at all. The personal anecdotes and the stories he shared of clients made the reading experience just so much more enjoyable and breezy. I was entertained the whole way. I feel like I learnt a lot.
