Title: Signs and Symptoms of Sexual Abuse
From the Book: ” Healing The Shame That Binds You”, by John Bradshaw

“Sexual abuse is the most shaming of all abuse. It takes less sexual abuse than any other form of abuse to induce shame. Sexual abuse is widespread. It is estimated that there are currently some 60 million victims of sexual violence.” – John Bradshaw
Signs and Symptoms of Sexual Abuse describes the various kinds of sexual abuse: physical, overt, covert (body violation and verbal abuse) and emotional (getting the needs met at the child’s expense).

During this last year, I went through the process of recovering memories of sexual abuse and healing the damage it caused . . . I documented that journey in a journal — I’m posting excerpts from my journal on my blog — I invite you to read it . . . it may help you know you aren’t alone . . . thank you!
