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.

If you had an abusive childhood (and maybe continued abuse as an adult) then you need to read this book. I have done so much to try and understand and move on in the past but get stuck in flashbacks. Only through the power of now knowing what an emotional flash back is will you be able to heal. The work is hard - people around you might not like you comforting the past abuse but until you get mad about what happened you can not face it.

Read this book - will stop you being upset with yourself and or being upset with the wrong people as you carry what you have learnt.

The best book I ever listen too- I also bought the hard copy as I want to study to work through the steps as the weight of abuse I no longer have the energy to carry - this book is my tool to be able to work with what happened and have a present moment I enjoy. Pete’s work you can tell is so well researched - it literally feels like he wrote it for you. He gives examples of his own past plus his person recovery and relationships which I myself found very helpful.

Good luck to anyone buying - I wish for you the same enlightenment and healing that I have had from This book. Bless u it was not your fault your parents where rubbish - you should have been loved properly - but there are people that do or will love you but you need to love that little you who wasn’t loved like that should have been.

I have never wrote a review like this before but I never read I book so well written on a subject that I struggle so much with.

Thank u Pete Walker for making sence of myself

useful and really insightful, you can be going through lot of the process he describes and not knowing, it gives you more clarity of what happens and how to deal with it.

Could you please please please get someone else to read the book? It’s a great book and contains so much useful information, but for the love of God, that guy makes me cringe toward the end of every sentence. Every single sentence.

I’m really struggling to hear the rest of the book, just the thought of the tone of the guy saying “abandonment melaaaaange” just one more time, makes me feel like throwing my phone in the wall 🤦🏼‍♀️

Awful narrator to a great book
