I Still Believe in Monsters: What We Learn Before We Have Words

By L. May

In I Still Believe in Monsters, L. May explores what we learn to survive-and what it takes to unlearn it. Through deeply personal and unflinching storytelling, the book examines how childhood trauma quietly shapes identity, relationships, and self-perception. What begins as confusion becomes conditioning; what feels like survival becomes who we are.

This powerful narrative delves into the lasting impact of unspoken experiences, the pull of familiar pain, and the challenge of breaking cycles that were never meant to be carried. Rather than offering a perfect picture of healing, May focuses on awareness, resilience, and the slow, intentional process of reclaiming yourself.
