Growing up in a home where there is addiction or relationship
trauma puts a child at great risk for long-term, post-traumatic
stress effects that adversely compromise adult relationships.
Bestselling author, psychologist, and psychodramatist Tian Dayton
examines this trauma through an exploration of the way the brain
and body process frightening or painful emotions and experiences
in childhood, and she shows how these traumas can become
catalysts for unhealthy, self-medicating behaviors including drug
and alcohol abuse, food issues, and sex, gambling, and shopping
addictions.
