What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma by Stephanie Foo

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense medium-paced

An extremely triggering, relatable, and wonderful book. With a CPTSD diagnosis this book can feel way too personal, in good and bad ways. The information and story is helpful, but that makes it both comforting and confrontational somehow. I had to take breaks while reading and for days after each reading session I would struggle in true CPTSD fashion. Overall what I took away far exceeded the emotional struggles I had while reading it.
