Adult
Children of Abusive Parents : A Healing Program for Those Who Have
Been Physically, Sexually, or Emotionally Abused
Uk
Can by
Steven Farmer "The violent forms of child abuse that make headlines
are not the only ones that leave lifelong scars. A child who grows
up in an unstable environment where empathy, clear boundaries and
trust are lacking, can end up living a ravaged adulthood. Children
can be crippled by mixed messages, family secrets and reversed parent-child
roles. Many victims of these practices are not even sure their childhood
was abusive. This balanced, practical guide delineates traits of
abusive families. Narrative vignettes in each section illustrate
and personalize critical issues. Most valuable is the step-by-step
self-help program that includes exercises and journal work for recovery."

Allies
in Healing : When the Person You Love Was Sexually Abused As a Child,
a Support Book
Uk
Can by Laura Davis "I read this book when
an ex-love told me he had been sexually abused as a child. It was
a revelation as to why our relationship had such strange dynamics.
The book clues you in on the effects of abuse, the healing process
and what to expect from your partner. If you are wondering at all
about the effects and consequences of childhood sexual abuse READ
THIS. The book is also quite good at addressing the abuse of both
men and women, making it useful for anyone in a relationship with
a survivor. VERY HONEST AND REVEALING READ. "

Alone
and Forgotten : The Sexually Abused Man
Uk
Can by Rod Tobin
"In 1992, therapist Rod Tobin began working with male survivors
of sexual abuse. Half of the men treated came from the general public;
the other half had suffered abuse at boy's training schools. In
Alone and Forgotten, he examines the major symptoms of sexually
abused men, and explains how society's perceptions and the survivor's
healing process differ from that of their female counterparts. This
book offers a positive process of healing for male survivors of
sexual abuse."

The
Journey from Abandonment to Healing
Uk
Can by Susan Anderson
"Susan Anderson's book clearly defines the five phases of a different
kind of grieving--grieving over a lost relationship. An experienced
professional who has specialized in helping people with loss, heartbreak,
and abandonment for more than two decades, Susan Anderson gives
this subject the serious attention it deserves. The Journey From
Abandonment to Healing is designed to help all victims of emotional
breakups--whether they are suffering from a recent loss, or a lingering
wound from the past; whether they are caught up in patterns that
sabotage their own relationships, or they're in a relationship where
they no longer feel loved. From the first stunning blow to starting
over, it provides a complete program for abandonment recovery."
