520 "A searing memoir of reckoning and healing from an
acclaimed journalist and former This American Life
producer investigating the little-understood science
behind Complex PTSD and how it has shaped her life. By age
thirty, Stephanie Foo was successful on paper: She had her
dream job as a radio producer at This American Life and
had won an Emmy. But behind her office door she was having
panic attacks and sobbing at her desk. After years of
questioning what was wrong with her, she was diagnosed
with Complex PTSD-a condition that occurs when trauma
happens continuously, over the course of years. Both of
Stephanie's parents had abandoned her as a teenager after
years of physical and verbal abuse and neglect. She
thought she'd overcome her trauma, but her diagnosis
illuminated the ways in which her past continued to
threaten her health, her relationships, and her career.
Finding few resources to help her heal, Stephanie set out
to map her experience onto the scarce scientific research
on C-PTSD. In this deeply personal and thoroughly
researched account, Stephanie interviews scientists and
psychologists and tries a variety of innovative therapies
with the determination and curiosity of an award-winning
journalist. She returns to her hometown of San Jose,
California, to investigate the effects of immigrant trauma
on a community, she uncovers family secrets in the country
of her birth, Malaysia, and learns how trauma can be
inherited through generations. Ultimately, she discovers
that you don't move on from trauma-but you can learn to
move with it, with grace and joy. Powerful, enlightening,
and clarifying, What My Bones Know is a brave narrative
that reckons with the hold of the past over the present,
the mind over the body-and one woman's ability to reclaim
agency from her trauma"--|cProvided by publisher.
