Trauma is an emotionally distressing or disturbing emotion that overwhelms an individual’s coping ability. It can challenge their sense of safety, trust, control, and meaning in life.
This disruption of core beliefs and worldviews can create significant psychological distress as individuals struggle to make sense of their experiences and reconcile the effect of trauma on their sense of self and their perception of the world. It can have a lasting impact on an individual’s psychological, emotional, and physical well-being, and it may require specialized treatment and support to heal and recover.
However, most of the time, the impacted individuals tend to avoid confronting them because it requires vulnerability and exposing one’s innermost thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This vulnerability can be uncomfortable and feel like a loss of control, making individuals apprehensive. This psychologically and emotionally sensitive struggle is beautifully portrayed in the erotica romance book ‘Unwanted,’ a story of one traumatic soul.
Heidi Fischer: The Painful Rumination Of Her Past
Unwanted is a tale of profound post-traumatic scars, uncertainty and ambiguity, emotional pain, and the importance of the support of loved ones in healing and confronting the past. The plot revolves around the life of Heidi Fischer, a highly successful and independent woman on the outside but a scared, distressed, and insecure soul within. The story sheds light on her struggles and predicaments to confide her pain and suffering in the people she trusts, but her vulnerable self is in denial. She is afraid of the ambiguity and agony confronting the past brings.
The Dreadful Night
Heidi Fischer’s trauma takes the readers into her final year of college. She was all set to make journalism a career and spend her golden days with Josh, the best partner she could ask for. But amid all certain things, one night, she got raped, shattering her dreams, expectations, and hopes. The incident transforms Heidi’s perspectives on most things around her, starting from the breakup with Josh, followed by the career change and overall personality revolution.
Heidi Fischer In Denial

But eventually, the story reveals that those who genuinely love never leave, may it be distance for days or years. Josh suddenly makes an entrance into Heidi’s seemingly composed life and shakes the very foundation of it. He always had some instinct that there was more behind this instant breakup; hence, he now confronts her about her past decision. Heidi has never forgotten Josh and often pondered over her decision to break up and the alternative reality of it. The same was true with Josh’s heart, still reserved for that special girl. With so much profound emotions on both sides and the painful recollection of the past, Josh’s confrontation smashes the whole façade of Heidi’s personality, leaving her aching soul bare.
Making Peace With The Past
