Description
I Didn't Know It Was Trauma is a raw, survivor-led memoir about living with complex PTSD. Written by a New Zealand survivor, advocate, and social worker, this book traces the invisible injuries of prolonged trauma-those that are often misdiagnosed, minimized, or dismissed entirely. With fierce honesty and emotional clarity, Carolyn unpacks the lived experience of trauma that doesn't look like trauma: the forced smiles, the unbearable silence, and the systems that failed to offer care.
This is not a clinical manual. It's a reckoning. A hand extended to anyone who's ever asked, "Why do I keep feeling like this?" or "What the is wrong with me?" Carolyn writes from the wreckage-not to inspire, but to tell the truth. Her words offer validation, language, and resonance for those navigating the quiet devastation of complex trauma.
