The Burn Pit by Thekylekurtz

A veteran has to face the things that haunt him.

Gracie & Gray by uxecila

This isn't a story for the faint of heart. This is a story about a girl who loved a boy. A boy who couldn't love her back. This is a story about the bitter, the sweet, betrayals, second chances, and redemption. If your heart doesn't hurt by the end of this wreckage, then I haven't done my job properly.

Finding Happiness (Book 1 comes before and ties in to You Series) by Regnado

The second I saw her my skin heated and heart skipped a beat. I knew I had to know who she was. I knew I just needed to be near her. After my horrible marriage I knew getting involved with anyone was the worst thing I could possibly do. The problem was the girl of my dreams was standing right in-front of me partially guarded. She knew my family and knew about my past which should scare me away, but it doesn't it only draws me closer to her. My brother is getting married, I'm the best man, she's the maid of honor. If I screw this up even a little bit everyone is going to have my ass. The second I saw him my mouth went dry. His sculpted arms in that t-shirt covered in ink, my body was telling me to run the other way, to not get involved with this gorgeous dangerous man with a military past. Those gorgeous blue eyes however pulled me in and saw right through every part of me. He's my best friends soon to be brother-in-law, and I have legal custody of a child that isn't mine. Nobody wants to be with a single mom these days, what makes him any different?

Confessions of a pagan gal. {the finally of memoirs} ✔️ by creepypizza666

This is my end of my memoirs for this time of my life this is actually where I'm going to say about my spirituality and how I've overcome PTSD very easily. It is similar to the other autobiographies that I did but it's a lot different in someways because it's more spiritual. That being said it's about my spiritual life and how I deal with life and how some people judge me on it. *noticed on Instagram* **availableon amazon as ebook and paperback, hc** ***please rate kindly on goodreads***

WAKE (Wattpad edition) by coffee-an-flowers

The powerful conclusion to the SCARS trilogy. Jon finally feels like he has a place where he can get a break from the weight of having to be Pastor Pete's good son. But the opioid pills he's using to manage his pain are changing his behavior in ways he won't be able to hide for much longer. It isn't even his biggest secret: no one knows the real Jon White, and he's terrified if the full truth of himself comes out it will cost both the love of his earthly dad and his heavenly Father. Cary has one last hurdle to leave years of childhood abuse behind him: the trial at which he has to testify against his abuser. But his decision to speak up has splintered the remains of his family and his former best friend seems bent on self-destructing. Cary's going to need everything he's learned along the way to snatch Jon off the ledge. It's never been more obvious the journey from walking wounded to wholeness isn't meant to be travelled alone.

Soldier's Heart - Noncombat wounds of PTSD by phemiagabriel

A memoir to study about personal stories of trauma. I am hoping to give a voice to the voiceless. An ear to those to know they area not alone. Courage so others can speak up and to let others feel less burdened. This book is filled with personal stories, poems, images, and more. Thank you for reading. Best Wishes. If you ever want to reach out to me, I got your six!

Didn't Break Me by jaclynsteele

Didn't Break Me, is my (condensed) personal story of emotional trauma and my decision to face it and do the hard work of healing. The message I hope to send within the pages of my short book is that healing from emotional trauma is possible and that sometimes our deepest pain paves the way to our deepest strength.
