It took me 37,287 words to describe the impact sexual trauma in the military has had on my life. It has taken me over 30 years to come to terms with my experience where I can now write about it and speak about it. I want to educate people about rape in the military. Perhaps I will be able to help others by sharing my experience. To keep silent just perpetuates the violence and reinforces the culture of rape that has been accepted in the military. My insight in this book will be helpful to both practitioners helping veterans and to other veterans suffering from sexual trauma as well.

Franz Ruppert konzentriert sich in diesem Buch auf einen Aspekt, der in den Trauma-Debatten oft zu kurz kommt: Es ist die Täter-Opfer-Dynamik, die zu einer Endlosschleife der seelischen Verletzungen führt. Eltern, die als Kinder nicht gewollt und nicht vor Gewalt geschützt wurden, werden meist selbst zu Tätern an ihren eigenen Kindern und reinszenieren unbewusst ihre eigenen Erlebnisse. Ganze Gesellschaften können auf diese Weise trauma-assoziiert sein und offen oder verdeckt Gewalt ausüben.

This audiobook describes, in a clear and accessible way, the mechanisms that are at play when someone has experienced trauma at a young age. It describes how early experiences shape the brain and the nervous system, and explains why some patterns and behaviors may resist change.

The pathway is gentle—recognizing that very young parts are at play within, regardless of actual age.

In Reggie Ford's bold reassessment of the Black experience in America, he demonstrates that a new understanding of PTSD is required. PTSD, or Perseverance Through Severe Dysfunction, as Ford defines it, underlines the darkness of mental illnesses and behaviors that impact young Black men and have plagued Black Americans for generations. But his reassessment is not doom and gloom. Instead, Ford implores that we turn pain into peace. Ford uses his own traumatic experiences to inform his call to action.
