About this ebook
"The most practical, down to earth, thoughtful, and sensitive book written on women's childhood sexual abuse."—Samuel C. Klagsbrun, MD From the psychotherapist who offered groundbreaking work on self-mutilation (Cutting) comes a landmark examination of the psychology of sexual abuse. Stolen Tomorrows encourages the 20 percent of women who have been abused to think about, talk about, and seek help for what has been their secret shame. In addition to giving therapists and other helpers an empathic insight, Stolen Tomorrows will enable the survivor to recognize herself in both her personal history and her current struggle to overcome the legacy of abuse.

This is more of an informational book rather then a self help book for survivors although i could relate to A LOT of the things he was discussing i felt it was more or less talking about the survivors rather then talking to them i think I'll try and find a book that is more directed to helping me in my recovery rather then giving me information i already know about myself it was helpful in discovering i was not the only one who had suffered from symptoms that i have also suffered from.
