The book itself is a classic and anyone with trauma, a loved one with trauma, or anyone who wants to prevent trauma or wants to know how to deal with potential future trauma…. should read the book. I read this instaread as a bit of a refresher. It’s not at all good enough as a TLDR… definitely read the actual book if you’re interested.
