Carter Fellow Stephanie Foo Releases 'What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma'

American Life radio producer Stephanie Foo, a recipient of the Rosalynn Carter Fellowships for Mental Health Journalism, wrote a book about her personal experience with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD). Foo says the “complex” distinction is an important one: “You can get PTSD from a singular traumatizing event, but Complex PTSD occurs when the trauma recurs again and again and again over the course of years.” Foo hopes that her book will help others navigating this relatively new condition.
