Have you ever felt lonely, even when surrounded by people? Born Lonely is a deeply personal and honest account of trauma, survival, healing and hope. Drawing on both lived experience and years of therapeutic practice, Linda Bishopp explores how childhood experiences can shape our relationships, sense of self and emotional wellbeing long into adulthood. Through powerful reflections and professional insight, Linda shares her journey from loneliness and trauma towards understanding, recovery and connection. More than a memoir, Born Lonely is an invitation to recognise that healing is possible, that our past does not have to define our future, and that it is never too late to begin again.
