Description
This e-book is for everyone who has ever been the victim of sexual abuse, including rape, child sexual abuse, incest, date rape, abuse by church authorities, abuse by teachers, and all other shades of abuse.
We share our own stories within this e-book, and those of others who have shared their stories with us. The goal is to help everyone recover from sexual trauma — whether it happened last week, or 40 years ago; whether the perpetrator was a family member, or a stranger; whether you have never told anyone about it, or have published countless articles and books about your experience.
We know how it feels to face trauma alone. We know the loneliness, the terror, and the triggers that catapult you back into the original traumatic emotional landscape. And we have done our best to heal from the aftermath of sexual abuse.
This e-book includes resources and techniques for facing what happened to you, and then healing from it. The techniques vary widely, but they all center around creating safety, gaining the courage to tell your story (don’t panic, you can use the "blah blah" method!), doing some healing exercises and activities (some may feel downright silly at first), and using techniques that will, indeed, lighten your experience and your memories of the trauma. The goal is peace. You can reach that goal.
If that goal seems elusive to you right now, that’s okay! We understand the legacy lack of trust — in others, in promises, and in yourself — that comes from sexual abuse and betrayal (especially if you knew your abuser, and if the abuser should have been protecting you from danger rather than causing it).
The techniques and exercises described in this e-book also work for those suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) caused by war, painful memories, and severe loss, including the death of a child or a spouse.
