Narrator’s Note of How to Survive PTSD audiobook:
"Hello Wonderful Listeners!
I certainly don’t have the mental expertise of Stephanie, but I want to take a moment to encourage you to take advantage of all her infinite wisdom and experiences she has had in life. I don’t know anyone who wants to help people more than she and I’m truly honored to be narrating her inspirational and touching self-help books.
I like a lot of you had a lot of trauma growing up. My mother’s suicide and father’s incarceration for years left giant tolls on my life – making me feel helpless and utterly miserable. I felt so alone and judged for the actions of my parents and just gave in to the self-pity and depression. For years I let that negativity just rip a whole right through my heart – it never seemed it would mend.
But I found the strength within myself – just as Stephanie encourages, even when I didn’t think there was any strength there. But I slowly found peace and happiness. I’m not saying it was an easy road. To be honest, I struggle sometimes even today.
But I so passionately agree with Stephanie’s amazing attitude that WE CAN DO IT! We can overcome any illnesses, mental or otherwise! I didn’t deserve anything that happened to me, and my experiences have made me a beautiful person today and I know the power I truly have inside for what I have endured, and it is the same for you! Believe it!
Never give up – sometimes you have to fake it at first – but remember to step up and get the treatment you need and forget all the stigmas and never be ashamed.
It will be worth it I promise.
I hope and pray we can be more open and forget the stigma’s associated with mental illness for the good of mankind!
