She Survived Hell in Haiti. Then Her Brain Betrayed Her. A PTSD Love Story.
Irritable Hearts: A PTSD Love Story
Human rights journalist Mac McClelland went to Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. She witnessed the unthinkable. She came home with a shattered nervous system, a diagnosis of severe PTSD, and a love story that almost broke her. This is the raw, unflinching account of her descent into trauma—the flashbacks, the dissociation, the 'irritable heart' that doctors once blamed on weak character. But more than that, it's a story about what happens when your own body becomes a war zone, and how one woman fought to reclaim it through somatic therapy, controlled confrontation with fear, and a partner who refused to give up. Based on her memoir *Irritable Hearts: A PTSD Love Story*, this video shatters the myths about trauma, reveals why talk therapy isn't enough, and shows the brutal, beautiful truth about healing through human connection.
