Publisher's Summary

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.

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.

You'll Learn: You're not alone; you're not bad or defective; it's not your fault, your symptoms are normal, and you can heal with a proven, step-by-step CPTSD workbook that compassionately guides you in healing from common CPTSD symptoms such as difficulty with close relationships, shame, guilt, anxiety, depression, addiction, and feeling defective and unworthy of love and belonging.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
