Where Do You Go When You Need to Hide Away?: A Story of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

'Sometimes highly functional people have lives and minds that are falling apart. You would never know because they would never tell you ... until they write a book about it.'

Where Do You Go When You Need To Hide Away? is the story of Joe Black and his struggles with Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Joe's childhood experiences of abuse and strained family relationships left him with shame and unresolved mental health issues. As he ventured on his careers and adult relationships, his challenging childhood still shaped his thoughts and behaviours. Only in his forties and fifties during a series of mental breakdowns did Joe finally acknowledge his past traumas and start to confront his lifelong battles with his identity and poor mental health. After years of therapy, Joe describes what he has learned about himself through psychology and how he now tries to manage his mental health and finally free himself from his need to hide away.
