There’s a book called “the body keeps the score” that discusses the changes in the brain from childhood abuse. It’s fascinating reading. The author, Bessel Van Der Kolk was one of the pioneers who recognized PTSD and push to have a big part of the DSM. There’s actually imaging in the book showing different areas impacted by trauma.
