Overview

"Rebecca E. Chandler was living in Kenya when she turned to a surgeon in Dubai for a ""routine procedure."" Within days of the operation, her mental and physical health collapsed. As her mind and body deteriorated into premature menopause, flashbacks of her childhood sexual abuse began to re-emerge. Depression took over and her health, and life, hung in the balance. In order to heal, Rebecca had to find the courage to explore Dissociative Idenity Disorder (DID), more commonly known as multiple personality disorder, to confront a group of disassociated alters, or fragments, created by her mind to survive eight years of sexual assault. The fragments tormented her with sad, angry, fearful, and shameful talk inside her mind. Each day, Rebecca struggled with the multiple personalities, never fully experiencing real joy or peace until she embraced meditation, healing, and western medicine to put her house in order. It Won't Hurt None is Rebecca E. Chandler's inspiring memoir that shares how she confronts her past and processes layers of trauma and chronic PTSD. Ultimately, through a combination of self help and several forms of healing, Rebecca releases the trauma locked in her mind and body so she can finally live her life whole and in the present. Rebecca hopes her story of surviving trauma and healing encourages all readers to tend to their own wounds. She encourages everyone to let your wound open because when it is visible, it's vulnerable. Look at it, communicate with it, learn from it, and heal it. Rebecca believes we do not have to live broken by shame and in the shadows. She believes we all have the ability to heal.
