Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'Freedom did not arrive as a clean, simple gift. It arrived as another set of decisions.'When Syreta Toson walked out of prison after 14.5 years, she thought stepping through the gates meant she was finally free. But within days, she found herself sleeping on the floor because her body physically rejected the soft mattress she had spent a decade dreaming about.In My Life With P.I.C.S., Toson delivers an unfiltered, deeply personal, and groundbreaking look into Post-Incarceration Syndrome (PICS)-the unaddressed psychological and physical trauma that follows formerly incarcerated individuals back into the free world.Written directly from the perspective of a justice-impacted woman rather than an academic, this book exposes the subtle, everyday realities of life after prison: - The Invisible Scars: Why simple acts like grocery shopping, throwing away leftovers, or hearing loud noises trigger hypervigilance and deep distress.- The Body's Memory: How years of structured routine, count times, and substandard medical care rewrite the human nervous system.- Reentry & Systemic Barriers: The emotional toll of housing denials, background check discrimination, and navigating parole while fighting societal stigma.- Rebuilding Broken Bonds: Navigating strained relationships with children, partners, and family members after years of forced separation.- Healing & Mindset Shift: Practical, trauma-informed strategies for conquering imposter syndrome, building resilience, establishing financial literacy, and creating a life of purpose.Featuring powerful forewords, co-authored perspectives, and raw stories from other survivors, My Life With P.I.C.S. is a essential resource for justice-impacted individuals, families of returning citizens, reentry specialists, counselors, and advocates seeking to understand the true psychological cost of incarceration-and how to overcome it.…
