About This Book
Part memoir, part self-help, and all truth, this book charts one man's journey from deep trauma through survival to something more vital: thriving.
Told with unflinching honesty and laced with dry humour, Ian Johnstone dismantles the clichés of academic and pseudo psychology that promotes the commercial recovery culture and survivor identity. Instead, he offers readers grounded tools for facing the past without being defined by it. Through personal stories, often visceral commentary, and challenging insights, the book guides readers away from victimhood and towards choice, clarity, and strength.
This is not an easy comfortable read, nor a tale of redemption. It's a manual for those who've had enough of survival being the end goal.
