It's Not About Food, Drugs, or Alcohol: It's About Healing Complex PTSD - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Your Struggle With Food, Weight, Drugs or Alcohol Is Not Your Fault,
It's A Normal Response To Surviving An Abnormal Childhood

Even though Mary was in long-term recovery with food, severe obesity, drugs, and alcohol and had what most people would consider a successful life - behind closed doors, she still struggled and wondered...

• Why she had so few close friends and had difficulty finding a fulfilling, romantic relationship
• Why she still struggled with food, sleep, & caffeine
• Why she couldn't find the flow and passion she longed for in her career
• Why, even though she was in long-term recovery with food and substances and had maintained a 160lb weight loss for several decades, she felt the need to hide these parts of her past from others

Finally, in mid-life, she discovered the root cause driving these, and her past addictions to food, drugs, and alcohol was a condition known as Complex PTSD (CPTSD), a more severe form of PTSD that developed from her being raised in a chaotic alcoholic home.

This discovery sent Mary on a five-year journey where she researched leading experts in the fields of complex trauma and addiction. She read dozens of books about complex PTSD and the adverse childhood experiences study (ACE Study.) She also studied thought leaders in the fields of neuroscience and developmental psychology. She read countless books about addiction, emotional trauma, childhood trauma in adults, food addiction, and addiction recovery.

Join Mary as she experiences one mind-blowing revelation after another as she learns that CPTSD was operating behind the scenes sabotaging her weight, addiction recovery, relationships, career, and health, and learn what she did to heal.
