I Am Not Done Yet: A Map to Starting Over After Trauma

By TIMOTHY CARPENTER MD

Trauma can be a crash. It can also be a divorce, a breakup, a death, the loss of a job, or any life event that splits your identity into before and after.

In I Am Not Done Yet, Dr. Timothy Carpenter shares a heartfelt roadmap for rebuilding after personal trauma. Drawing from his own life-changing experience, he offers a steady, practical guide for the part nobody prepares you for: the quiet middle after everything changes.

This book helps you rebuild with tools that work on real days, including:

how to stop the mental spiral and give your mind a clear instruction

how to create "containers" for grief and anger so they don't hijack your day

how to shut down the nighttime replay loop and protect sleep

how to build momentum with a Minimum Viable Day and a "never miss twice" rule

how to recover from setbacks without shame

how to pace a changed body without giving up your life

how to ask for support without surrendering your dignity

how to rebuild connection, meaning, and usefulness in sustainable doses

how to create a weekly blueprint so you stop starting over every morning

No performance. No pretending.

Just a map, a rhythm, and a return.
