Welcome

Hello, dear reader. I am Krysti. I’m starting this blog to write about trauma and recovery. I need a daily writing routine to help me get back to feeling like my best self, and for whatever reason I want to share it with the world. What do I know about trauma? Good question. I am a registered nurse with degrees in nursing and psychology. I am also working on a master’s degree in global health. More importantly, though, I am a trauma survivor myself. I underwent the very sudden implosion of my marriage, which plummeted me into severe depression that culminated in a suicide attempt. I eventually went to residential treatment, and I believe that it saved my life. I will talk about all of that and more in this blog. I hope that you keep reading.
