Sobre IBD

Too many times, I was told to move on.To stay quiet. To be professional. To protect institutions that did not protect me.In Even If You’re Broken, I write about surviving sexual assault, navigating bipolar disorder and autism, and reclaiming bodily autonomy in systems designed to silence women and survivors. I share what it means to report harm and still carry the mental aftermath. I examine public reckonings that exposed abuse. I ask why survivors with mental health struggles are so often dismissed.This is a book about boundaries, courage, and refusing to disappear.Read this if you want to learn more about:§ mental health and trauma§ bodily autonomy§ sexual assault survival§ campus power dynamics§ personal essays§ cultural reckoning§ courage and resilienceEven If You’re Broken is the bold second book in the Real Talk on Mental Health and Neurodiversity nonfiction series.If you like honest memoir, cultural analysis, and survivor-centered storytelling, you’ll love Katie Rose Guest Pryal’s courageous read.**Winner of the IPPY Gold Medal in Women’s Issues**
