A Comprehensive Self-help Manual How To Heal After An Abusive Relationship Abusive Relationship Signs

It takes a long time to recover from an abusive and controlling relationship. Being monitored, isolated, stalked and abused leaves its mark. This book includes suggestions for people who have left a relationship of coercive control. People who are still in such a relationship should seek help from a domestic violence advocate, even if there is no physical violence. But beyond the break-up--before they can feel completely well again--victims/survivors need to focus on recovering. I've organized these suggested activities under the acronym RECOVERY.

This book is a comprehensive self-help manual that will appeal to any woman who has ever been psychologically, emotionally, financially or physically hurt by a man. Through penetrating case studies, worksheets and psychological insights, this book will help the reader identify and accept her situation of abuse and subsequently empower her to learn the art of the sacred No, reclaiming self-esteem and healing through life-changing, creative expression. It is an invaluable tool, a unique guide written specifically for wounded women, by two women who are all too familiar with the silent and invisible stain of abuse that marks the world we live in.
