There is magnitude of people out there still recovering from the cavern that abuse leaves in its wake; this book serves as a walkthrough towards recovery.

From personal experience I know that there is camaraderie to be found by sharing your struggle with others that have walked a similar path.

With regards to my own recovery I found far more growth within my pain by reading the words of others. There shared struggle helped me by far more than I ever found within the mental health care profession.

Whilst reading books of this nature you are able to recover and reflect in your own time. Whilst you are sitting in front of a mental health professional, you have been asked to go back into the lion's den right there at the moment in time. That is something that is not always possible.

Books like my own serve as a recognition that being abused is not something that you had any control over my book makes that very clear.

Without sounding a little like I am the oracle, if my book had been written by someone else, the words within my story would have giving me the strength within to keep walking towards that light.

There is complete madness within its pages teetering on insanity. But that only serves to reiterate that recovery is possible for us all.
