WHO HURT YOU?The Weight Was Never Yours to CarryIdentifying, Understanding, and Returning Misplaced ResponsibilityWhat if the pain you’ve carried your entire life was never yours to carry in the first place?What happens when a child is blamed for the choices of adults? When love comes with conditions, survival is mistaken for bad behavior, and the wounds of childhood follow us into adulthood?In Who Hurt You? The Weight Was Never Yours to Carry, author Dana Priyanka Hammond delivers a deeply personal, courageous, and thought-provoking memoir about childhood trauma, abandonment, adoption, emotional wounds, and the lifelong consequences of misplaced responsibility.Through raw honesty, personal reflection, and an exploration of how trauma affects the developing brain, Hammond challenges readers to look beyond behavior and ask a more meaningful question: Instead of asking, 'What’s wrong with you?' what if we asked, 'What happened to you?'Drawing from her lived experiences with rejection, attachment difficulties, PTSD, anxiety, depression, panic, and emotional survival, Hammond reveals how childhood experiences can shape identity, relationships, self-worth, and the way we respond to the world.But this memoir is about more than trauma. It is about accountability, reclaiming identity, and learning to separate the responsibilities we must accept from the burdens that never belonged to us.Inside these pages, readers will explore:How childhood trauma can influence emotional development, relationships, and adult behavior.The hidden weight of abandonment, rejection, shame, and conditional love.Why survival responses are often misunderstood as character flaws.The emotional consequences of being expected to carry an adult’s failures, guilt, or responsibilities.The difference between understanding trauma and using trauma as an excuse.With vulnerability, wisdom, and unwavering determination, Hammond reminds readers that understanding their past does not mean remaining trapped within it.
