I wish I had found this book last year. I had been experiencing chronic dissociation for almost 2 years and was so confused on what was happening to me. I believed there was no point in return and that I was having any early onset of dementia or my soul had completely left my body. I had searched all of google with my symptoms as well as seen a psychologist/psychiatrist and although I was directed to CTPSD, I could not relate fully to this at that point and time as I thought my childhood had been fine. I had been recently diagnosed with adhd, but as my symptoms got much worse since my diagnosis, adhd no longer felt relatable. It felt very surface level compared to what I was feeling everyday. Borderline personality disorder then became the most relatable, but it still wasn’t explaining a lot so I was lost again. This book explains everything and connects all the dots, it also provides scientifically backed healing tools and recommends spiritual practices in a non woo woo way if you are someone that struggles with this. If you are feeling lost, numb, confused, hopeless, and/or disconnected from people and life, please read this book. And please stop looking on google.
