Coles AFTER THE DAMAGE: How to Heal, Rebuild Your Confidence, and Find Yourself Again After a Toxic Relationship at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
You are not what was done to you. You are what remains. After the Damage is the honest, compassionate, and deeply practical guide for anyone recovering from a toxic, emotionally abusive, or controlling relationship — written not for the person you'll become when you're "fully healed," but for the person you are right now, standing in the middle of it. In 17 chapters across five parts, author Magdalene Tonge walks you through why toxic relationships happen to strong people and what they do to the nervous system, how to break a trauma bond and stop the cycle of returning, the specific process of rebuilding confidence and self-trust after gaslighting, how to set boundaries that come from self-knowledge rather than self-defense, and what healthy love actually feels like — and how to recognise it when it arrives. Grounded in research from trauma psychology, attachment theory, and somatic healing, and written with the warmth of someone who understands this road, After the Damage is not about getting over it. It is about getting through it, and discovering who you are on the other side. Includes journaling prompts, red-flag checklists, somatic exercises, and professional support guidance.
