I just started using this book a few months ago and I really recommend it to anyone suffering from childhood trauma and also the loved ones of those suffering from it as the principles are really important for recovery. So far I have been dealing with so many issues that I never understood but now I can finally understand and take positive steps towards recovery. It most likely will evoke some painful memories but just know that it is part of the healing process. I am so glad i bought it.

This book offers practical suggestions to managing problems that often follow on from an abusive childhood, such as flashbacks, "spacing out" too easily in times of strees, urges to self-harm, anger and excessive anxiety. Poor self-image and other problems such as all-or-nothing thinking are covered in detail. Working through this book has been really helpful personally.

I have been using this book alongside group psychotherapy, and have found it invaluable. So often the points made by the author, who is an expert in her field, intuitively make sense to me. I'd recommend it very strongly, as essential reading if you had a troubled childhood, and are looking for a structured way to make sense of your experiences, and find hope for the future.

Good supportive book
This book takes you steadily through the emotions that you do not think other people will understand, but this book does. Good for anyone that had an impact in their childhood.
