520 Barbara is a survivor of family violence, incest, and
rape. She has been diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress
Disorder and Bipolar Disorder and was declared permanently
disabled since May 2007 by the Social Security
Administration. Through personal stories, reflection, and
poems, Barbara illuminates the many challenges she has
faced while working through issues such as hypervigilance,
low self-esteem, poor body image, bulimia, and alcoholism.
In her collection, Barbara shares with us her experience
as a survivor and what she has learned as she continues
her path of healing from trauma. Her goal is to help other
survivors understand that they are not alone in their
struggles and to empower them to find their own voice. Her
words help to educate others about what it's like to live
with PTSD and ease the stigma surrounding mental illness.
Barbara's message is one of perseverance, courage, and
hope. She offers the reader a glimpse into how she has
discovered her inner warrior, learned to work through her
fears, and strengthen her spirit as she strives to live an
authentic life.
