Childhood Sexual Abuse Recovery

Are you struggling with childhood sexual abuse consequences?

Childhood sexual abuse is more common than people assume. The worse part is that the perpetrator is often someone close to home, rather than a stranger. So many victims find that they are either unable to speak out about their injustice, due to people around them shutting them down, and discouraging them, and they must face backlash from their loved ones for the rest of their adolescence and early adult life. Not to mention the painful psychological and physical health effects of trauma throughout their life.

If you are healing from your history of childhood sexual abuse, you may be feeling like a hamster running around on a wheel, unable to escape your own self-destructive tendencies. Many survivors are at high risk of substance abuse, depression, eating disorders, emotional dysregulation, difficulty sustaining a career, and healthy relationships, and many other mental, physical or behavioral issues. You want to break from both your traumatic memories and the repetitive patterns holding you back from thriving in life. But, it's even more difficult when you don't know the exact causes of your own reactions.

In this book, you can expect to learn about one of the most common symptoms, dissociation. This mechanism has allowed the victim to survive, until now. However, it can also be the cause of many other difficulties. Trust and superficial intimate relationships are common in adulthood for many survivors. You will discover the tool that helped her to lower the effects of the trauma and brought her to the emotional state needed to deal with every aspect of life. By following along Nancy's journey, you can find shortcuts where you can improve your life, whether that means seeking specific support groups or tackling your dissociation.

Here's a list of possible dissociative symptoms :

• Relationship with your partner is affected by the problem of expressing your needs
• Commitment issues and less trust in others repeatedly occur
• Making simple decisions is one hard step to take in your life
• Naming emotions is an impossible mission
