Omschrijving
A gritty and poignant true story of a Puerto Rican woman's life experience coping with severe trauma, a PTSD diagnosis and, the resilience that saves her. Surviving a traumatic childhood in New York City, NEWYORICANGIRL shares her tales of growing up with violent, dysfunctional and substance-abusing adults who don't notice she's gone missing or has survived a random abduction and rape that leaves her in a constant state of panic. As she's desperately trying to cope on her own, her parents subject her to a painful assimilation process that more permanently wounds her. When she becomes a mother herself, she's determined to protect her children from a similar fate - even if that means cutting ties with her family of origin. Just when she thought she'd overcome her traumatic past, she is in Manhattan on 9/11 all alone and must evacuate to reunite with her husband and children. After returning home, she has no idea that her life's cumulative trauma is about to catch up with her - when her terrifying PTSD symptoms nearly steal her sanity. This is NEWYORICANGIRL's story of triumph over trauma, as she learns how to live with a mental health condition that truly sets her free.
