Rate this book
You survived. Now it’s time to heal.

The Wounds We Carry is a powerful and compassionate guide for anyone living in the long shadow of childhood trauma and Complex PTSD. Written by trauma survivor and healing advocate Emily Grace Carter, this book blends lived experience with research-backed practices to help you break free from the invisible burdens you've been carrying for years.

Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, ashamed, or exhausted, this book will meet you where you are—with empathy, honesty, and hope.

Inside, you’ll learn how

Understand the roots and symptoms of Complex PTSD

Calm your overactive nervous system using mindfulness and breathwork

Reconnect with your inner child and rebuild emotional safety

Set healthy boundaries and regain self-trust

Gently process shame, grief, anxiety, and dissociation

This is not a clinical textbook—it’s a soul-level conversation. A guide from someone who’s been there.

Healing isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about remembering who you were before the world wounded you.

If you’re ready to release what no longer serves you, reclaim your voice, and build a future rooted in self-compassion, this book is your next step.

You are not broken. You are healing.

This has been the most helpful book I’ve ever read for addressing the long term effects of C-PTSD and what that looks like in the real world, giving practical steps to take toward healing. Highly recommend.

Helpful information overall, but quite repetitive. If someone was at the very beginning of their healing journey, this book would be a great asset.
