This is the fearless story of author Patricia Gunn. The mission of this book is to inspire other victims of sexual trauma to find the valor to fight another day. As survivors, we too can reclaim our lives and create a hopeful future. Gunn became a slave to alcohol and drugs at an early age and suffered a string of sexual traumas. Her life spiraled out of control. This two-headed monster of addiction and trauma propelled Gunn to dark, jarring places that she didn’t even know existed. While Four Grams of Affliction explores the many trips to hell that Gunn travelled, it also studies the workings of the human brain and how it operates as a powerful tool. And despite the agony and the pain, we come to realize that even the scathed eye can see a flicker of light in the prevailing darkness. Alcohol, drugs, and trauma claim lives every day. This book is a true testament to hope and salvation. The human spirit can wander and get lost; however, inner-peace is obtainable if you seek it out. Gunn has found that the solution to these problems lives outside of us. As the author discovered, giving back to victims of trauma and addiction often drives the soul into a new found sense of purpose.
