A Recipe for C-PTSD & PNES - (The Journey from Trauma to Healing Trilogy) by Debbie A Samson (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Let's use our wounds to show others a way through their pain, to give them hope, to help them find strength and perseverance. Debbie allows the reader to see into her lifetime of abuse. She shows how she slowly let go of anger, sadness, grief and trauma, and replaced it with love, happiness, forgiveness, tolerance, determination and gratitude. After developing Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) and Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures (PNES), Debbie is forced to face the past she has buried deep inside her. As the bricks come tumbling down she becomes sicker; she is eventually forced to give up her twenty-five-year career as a counsellor. As each trigger from her past surfaces, Debbie learns to knock them down and decides to use her life experiences to help others. This book will open the public's eyes and show how the effects of childhood trauma and abuse can be a recipe for mental illness.
