Emily's Redemption Song
Conversations inspired by one girl's determination to survive untreated Complex PTSD for over 40 years in a system that failed her.
welcome
Hello there 🖤 I am so happy that you found me. With your support, you have the opportunity to be apart of something really, really big. Through the real life experiences of living with increasingly difficult symptoms, falling through the cracks of a healthcare system that is decades behind, to finally finding the answer on my own. Complex PTSD- the relentless symptoms without a proper diagnosis to give them validity. We are at a turning point in history; a revolutionary breakthrough to educate our medical professionals and to bring hope during a mental health crisis.
Here you will find ALL OF THE EMOTIONS. My goal is to give you a bit of hope, insight, humor, and maybe a little sarcasm throughout your week. Grab a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and stay awhile. 🖤
