What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing by Oprah Winfrey & Bruce D. Perry: Conversation Starters

What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing by Dr. Bruce D. Perry and Oprah Winfrey provides both emotional and scientific observations regarding behavioral patterns that can be traced back to a person’s early experiences in life. People wonder why they think or act a certain way, and often condemn themselves and others for being unable to meet unrealistic standards. Dr. Perry and Winfrey want readers to reflect on traumatic incidents they may have experienced in the past, how they impacted their brains and the way it influences their response to stress today.

What Happened to You? Is a New York Times bestseller. It received a 4.52-star rating on Goodreads based on 1,359 reviews and 11,032 ratings. Kirkus Reviews called it a “candid guidebook to exorcising mental trauma.”

Introducing What Happened to You?

What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing by Dr. Bruce D. Perry and Oprah Winfrey takes an in-depth look at trauma and how it impacts people in the long term. 

There are a lot of people who wonder why certain situations make them react badly, and why they can never seem to get rid of a bad habit. If you’ve ever experienced this, then you might have blamed yourself for lacking self-control, discipline, and even motivation. What you’re not aware of is that trauma is the likely cause of these unwanted behaviors, and understanding their root cause could very well lead to the solutions you’ve been searching for. 

You may be used to asking yourself or getting asked, “what’s wrong with me/you?” all your life. The better question is this: “What happened to you?” Trauma is never an easy matter to dissect, as it requires you to look back on intimate or frightening life events that you’d rather leave in the past. This prevents you from understanding the profound impact this can have on every aspect of your adult life. Any neglect or abuse you suffered from as a child can have a lasting effect on how you view and respond to stress, as well as the lens through which you view the world.
