Built to Break

By Chryslte Chester-Durand

This isn't a recovery memoir that ties everything up with a neat little bow.

This is about what it really feels like to fall apart-and fight your way back.

Told in sharp, honest reflections and poetic truths, Built to Break is a collection of lived experience: addiction, trauma, motherhood, shame, survival, healing, and everything in between. It's for the ones who have held it all together when they were falling apart. For the ones who smile on the outside but are screaming inside. For the ones who've been misunderstood, silenced, and pushed past their breaking point-but kept going anyway.

Chrystle doesn't sugarcoat it. She walks you through what it's like to hit rock bottom, beg the universe for a sign, claw your way through addiction, face deep-rooted pain, and still show up for life-even when it hurts. These aren't chapters. They're moments. Truths. Gut punches. And quiet victories.

This book is for anyone who's ever felt like they were too broken to come back.
