The causes of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder range from severe neglect to monstrous abuse. Many survivors grew up in houses that were not homes - in families that were as loveless as orphanages and sometimes as dangerous. If you felt unwanted, unliked, rejected, hated, and/or despised for a lengthy portion of your childhood, trauma may be deeply engrained in your mind, soul, and body.

This book is a practical guide to recovering from lingering childhood trauma. It is copiously illustrated with examples of the author's and his clients' journeys of recovering. It is a comprehensive self-help guide for working through the toxic legacy of the past and for achieving a rich and fulfilling life.

WOW! I am not exaggerating when I say that I have purchased or read hundreds of books trying to get help for my mental health. I am a compulsive overeater, workaholic, busyaholic and a binge drinker. I have tried AA OA AlAnon, ACOA. I have prayed and tried several religions. I am a Catholic. I literally tried everything to overcome my sadness, shame, depression and low self esteem. Some things did help me some. THIS BOOK is amazing. I saw how many stars it had and wanted to try it. I love Audible because you can return books and I have returned some that were just "stories" and not helpful. I KNOW I have a problem. Most just get you to realize you need help. I have also been to therapists and tried several medications over the last 35 years. I was diagnosed with PTSD and anxiety. I felt shame because I have never been to battle and felt that soldiers who saw war and suffered PTSD had the "right" to have PTSD. I felt shame saying I had PTSD because I never saw what they did. This book is amazing. It tells my story EXACTLY. It made me feel understood and validated. I have PTSD because of the home I grew up in. This book validates my emotional abuse. This book changed my life. It gave me hope and my relationships with healthy people are better than I ever imagined and I broke free from the toxic people. YOU REALLY owe it to yourself to get this book. It will give you happiness you never believed possible. It is not a long set of chapters letting you know you have a problem. It offers solutions.

This book has helped more than any other book I've done on my journey to healing old wounds from my childhood. The author validates the listeners history and feelings while providing tools to help overcome these life long obstacles. I'm going to go back and re-listen to some other books that were helpful with these new tools at my disposal and then give this one another listen through.

Overwhelmed by how much this helped

I never felt more understood and comforted... I was suffering with crippling ptsd and on medication for it. Now I’ve been medication free for over 6 months and feel super stable 🙏🏽 I still get triggered once in a while but whenever things get hard I go back to this book and remember what I have to do to get myself out of that dark place!
Forever thankful beyond words for the work pete does!!

This book saved my life, no exaggeration

This narrator’s voice was awful. I got through three chapters and had to return. I will buy the hard copy and read it myself, because I think it’s invaluable information!

Will have to buy actual book

It would be helpful to have the printed version of the exercises constantly referenced. I really appreciate this book though. I feel seen.

Wonderdul and on point but...
