Finished #reading Whitaker's bit too long #thriller, #crime novel. Still, it is a fast read with short chapters and sparse text. There's a lot going on with the two main characters and everyone around them but mostly there is #trauma, obsession, marginalization, secrets and a relentlessness that brings out the worst and best in people. It's a good read.

Hello! I'm working on a resource to help people feel more confident in how they respond when someone discloses that they are struggling with PTSD, C-PTSD, or trauma symptoms/experiences.

I have my own examples of things I found helpful (giving me time to say what I needed to say) and unhelpful (asking for details of 'where I got it') but I would love to hear any examples that other folks are willing to share.
