PTSD doesn’t end when the trauma does. It lingers. It haunts. It changes everything.
In this raw and deeply personal survival guide, Allen De Keyser shares hard-won tools, daily practices, and powerful truths for navigating life with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. More than just a book—The PTSD Survival is a lifeline for those living with invisible wounds, offering validation, understanding, and a path forward through the darkness.
With faith, vulnerability, and courage, De Keyser explores grounding techniques, emotional regulation strategies, spiritual resilience, and the healing power of connection. Each chapter is filled with practical support and compassionate insight—from someone who has lived it.
You are not broken.
You are surviving.
And survival is a kind of strength the world doesn’t always see.
Allen De Keyser is a survivor, storyteller, and mental health advocate whose life was forever changed by trauma—but not defined by it. After enduring violence, near-death experiences, and personal loss, Allen has walked the long road of healing with the support of faith, family, and his loyal psychiatric service dog, Harley.
Through his writing, Allen opens the door to honest conversations about PTSD, invisible wounds, and the daily fight to keep going. His words are not clinical—they’re real. They come from the trenches of experience, offered with humility, hope, and the belief that survival is a form of strength.
Allen is also the creator behind the YouTube channel @DE_KEYSER, where he shares uplifting content about healing, dogs, and the power of resilience. He lives with his wife Marqueta and their beloved dogs Harley, Pebbles, and Fendi, continuing to turn his pain into purpose one chapter at a time.
