A Gender-Informed Recovery Guide for Adult Men Living With Childhood Trauma, Emotional Numbing, Anger, Workaholism, and the Shame of Not Being Allowed to Fall Apart
Complex PTSD does not always look the way books describe it. In adult men, it more often shows as chronic anger, low-grade depression, overwork, quiet numbing, sudden shutdown, and shame that has no name.
The Complex PTSD Workbook for Men is a structured, practical program written for the reader other trauma workbooks did not reach. It covers the male-typical symptom picture in plain language and offers worked exercises, self-assessments, and specific tools drawn from established therapeutic models.
Written by a mental health practitioner and researcher, the workbook treats the reader as capable of doing real work with real material. Thirteen chapters, a ninety-day recovery plan, and ten reference appendices provide a working starting point for men ready to look clearly at what has been happening.
