I don't know where to start, this is a great read for those who have left the evangelical scene - a must read even. I believe this author is the first or one of the first to identify or name religious trauma syndrome. She breaks down everything - and i mean everything - from the benefits religion gave you to the damage it does to the healing required.

It was honestly hard to get through because of all the experiences and emotions it brings up. I've had to stop and start a few times. There are exercises and writing prompts too. I didn't do all of them but the ones I did were helpful. I made a lot of notes in the margin and on paper, so I consider that a good book.
