How I Survived Unbroken: A True Story of Trauma, Narcissistic & Physical Abuse and the Power to Heal Hardcover

Imagine a little girl, her hair wrapped around her mother's wrist like a rope. Dragged across the floor. Her head slammed against a wooden chair. Called a bitch and told she should never have been born.Raised by a mother who believed that giving birth once and nursing for ten months earned her a lifetime award-and used every drop of milk as a weapon, a debt, a curse.That little girl was me.This is not a story of sadness.This is a story of survival.How I Survived Unbroken is a raw and deeply personal journey through childhood trauma, emotional abuse, manipulation, gaslighting, and the lasting wounds of being raised by a narcissistic mother.But this book is not only about what happened to me.It is about what happened next.The awakening. The boundaries. The painful self-reflection. The moment I stopped trying to change the people who hurt me and began healing the person who had carried those wounds for years.It is about reclaiming your identity.Rebuilding your self-worth.And finally understanding that what happened to you does not have to define who you become.If you have ever been bruised, silenced, shamed, controlled, manipulated, or made to believe you were not enough, you may recognize pieces of yourself within these pages.Our stories may be different, but survival has many stories.And healing begins when we realize we are allowed to write a different ending.You can survive what tried to break you.I know-because I did.
