Still Here — Part Two: Already Broken

This is not the polished version of my story.

This is the real one.

Part Two: Already Broken takes you deeper into the years that shaped me — grief, abandonment, self-destruction, survival, dissociation and the quiet ways trauma changes a child long before they understand what’s happening to them.

This chapter explores:
✨ childhood emotional neglect
✨ trauma and survival coping mechanisms
✨ identity, shame and self-worth
✨ addiction, dissociation and vulnerability
✨ growing up without emotional safety
✨ the moment everything finally made sense

Written from lived experience, this is not a clinical explanation of trauma.

It is what trauma felt like from the inside.

If you’ve ever looked back at your younger self and realised they were surviving far more than anyone saw at the time… this chapter will stay with you.

Included:
✨ Digital PDF download
✨ Instant access
✨ Part Two of an ongoing real-life memoir series

Please note:
This chapter contains themes of trauma, emotional neglect, self-harm, substance misuse and sexual abuse which some readers may find distressing.

This story is shared with honesty, not perfection.
And this is only the beginning 🤍
