Adoption Trauma

Pain, Rejection, Fear! But There Is Hope

By: Fiona Myles

Narrated by: Fiona Myles

The day that I believed adoption trauma was a thing was the start of my journey to a whole new me. Growing up I had been under the impression that I was just bad, naughty, and at one point in my childhood the adjective "evil" was applied. Of course I completely bought into the adjectives used to describe me. Even when the odd teacher spoke to me about my good attributes: caring, kind, and compassionate. Still I veered towards the negative. Adoption trauma is very real. Had it been recognized as a "thing" when I was a child, and if someone had picked up on it, things may have been different for me. I can’t change anything, but I can walk towards inner healing. So can you.

Do you want to take a step towards confidence, acceptance, and well-being? This audiobook is my inward look at adoption trauma with some helpful tips that I have used over the past six years to help me overcome the feelings of unworthiness, anger, fear, and rejection that plagued me for 50 years.

Straightforward, honest

She tells the painfully honest story of her struggle for self. Non-judgemental, relatable. I highly recommend Fiona's 's soothing voice to adoptees and to our constellation of advocates.

Outstanding

I can't say enough great things about this book. As a 55 yr old adopted male, I've experienced similar feelings to what the author was describing. This book provided more context for me to explore these feelings. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Very relatable and validating

I just started unpacking my adoption as trauma and it had caused such a shift in me I needed something like this to say “hey buddy this shit sucks and it’s hard but we can make it”. Im a licensed therapist and will be sharing this with fellow clinicians as adoption informed care is a pretty rare find. Thank you for sharing your story, it will help me share mine. ❤️
