Healing the Hyper-Independence Wound

The Wound Beneath the Strength

For the woman who handles everything and cannot explain why she is still this tired. You do not think of yourself as wounded. You think of yourself as capable. The not-asking became a reflex. The reflex became a personality. The personality became a life. The most complete book on hyper-independence available — tracing the wound through the nervous system, through the brain's opioid architecture, through the HPA axis and the body at all eight biological systems, through epigenetic inheritance, through the relationships, the sexuality, the friendships, the work, the money, and the present moment you cannot fully inhabit.
