What My Bones Know
Synopsis
Radio producer Stephanie Foo was diagnosed with complex PTSD in her thirties, a condition that grows out of repeated childhood trauma rather than one event. This memoir follows her research into what C-PTSD is and how it differs from standard PTSD, her search through talk therapy, EMDR and other treatments for one that actually helps, and her reporting on how trauma passed down through her Malaysian-Chinese immigrant family shaped her own body and mind.
