Carter Fellow Stephanie Foo Releases 'What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma'

American Life radio producer Stephanie Foo, a recipient of the Rosalynn Carter Fellowships for Mental Health Journalism, wrote a book about her personal experience with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). Foo says the “complex” distinction is an important one: “You can get PTSD from a singular traumatizing event, but Complex PTSD occurs when the trauma recurs again and again and again over the course of years.” Foo hopes that her book will help others navigating this relatively new condition.

Thank you for giving voice to the healing journey for people who suffer with C-PTSD. And thank God for the Carter Center's commitment to improving our lives and the world at large.

Thank you for sharing your story and writing your book. I’m up to chapter 16 in my first listen, can’t stop listening! So many ‘aha’ moments that I can totally relate to.

I'm up to part five via Audible, read by this amazing author! Thank you, Stephanie!

I listened to the "Don't Worry, Be Happy" episode of Snap Judgment, and after the story Glynn Washington spoke to Stephanie Foo about this topic and her new book. Look forward to checking her book out, and wishing her well on her healing journey.
