Book excerpt: When you suffer a traumatic event, you feel terrified, horrified, helpless, and hopelessand there is no going back to normal. At the point of post trauma, you have two choices: move forward or stay stuck. This is your guide to moving forward without guilt, shame, or feelings of inadequacy. How fast you move forward is not important, but its critical that you keep moving. The author, a survivor of sexual abuse who has devoted her life to helping trauma survivors, also examines the important role that family and friends play in helping trauma victims. Without the appropriate support, they will invariably find themselves labeled as workaholics, drug addicts, sluts, and even worse. Its easy to label, but its much harder to examine the reasons for these behaviors and to take steps to deal with trauma in order to move forward. Embark on a lifelong journey of healing, growing, and discovering a better version of you with Post-Traumatic Stress Revelations.
