I am glad Chloe published her book, I have hopes it will make a difference, and a part of me wants to read it...but I am with AnnieB, I don't think I can handle the emotions, I think it will trigger my PTSD as well.

Annie, I think a person has to be severely traumatized to be able to feel so strongly the trauma of others. I hope you find something that helps you feel better.

I don't like to see people mistreated and somehow after getting PTSD my body reacts in defence for anyone, my heart pounds and I can feel the adrenaline (for a short time all my MG symptoms go away when this happens), and afterwards my MG symptoms get severe. Sometimes I think my MG is an extension of PTSD since they seem to go hand in hand for me.

One of these days, I'd like to read this book.

Shaylynn, I'd love to join an online bookclub to discuss this book.

(I am laughing at how opposite these two statements I made are...but I do love to read!)
