FROM THE PUBLISHER

"A self-help book that uses cartoons effectively. 'The best book available to help survivors cope and understand.'"--Dan Sexton, Director, Childhelp's National Child Abuse Hotline

ANNOTATION

"This much-needed book pinpoints the typical problems abused children experience when they become adults. The information is presented in a friendly and thorough manner for victims and professionals. Original."

This is a simple read to get a survivor physical, emotional, or sexual abuse started. I found it a bit lacking in depth--perhaps because it is so short--and I did not care for the illustrations. Again, recommended as a good starting point. For a more in-depth examination of this subject, I found Miss America By Day by Marilyn VanDerber to be extremely compelling.

For everyone who reads a bestseller like "My Fractured Life" and sees way too much of their own self and emotional baggage there, "Outgrowing the Pain" is going to be incredibly useful. I don't want to relate to "My Fractured Life" or any other book like that. I want to say I recognize that type of behavior in others, not in me. With "Outgrowing the Pain" I have realized things about myself, about my behavior. I have realized just what a mixed up childhood I had. Best of all "Outgrowing the Pain" provides you with the teaching to start fixing yourself.

This book offered very little in terms of outgrowing the pain. It was too brief and had very little useful information.

Author: Guest
OUTGROWING THE PAIN is a much needed book for the countless adult survivors of child abuse. Clearly written it begins with the source of so much continued pain - denial. Its list of the characteristics of the abused child will ring true immediately with any survivor. What is helpful about this book is that it offers a step by step way to identify how your painful past is prohibiting you from living the most fulfilling life you can. Survivors deny and often bury the pain from their childhoods because they think that will free them from the past, but the truth is that the only way to get over the pain is to remember and release it. OUTGROWING THE PAIN is a good tool to begin the healing process. I wish I had a resource like this when I realized I had not healed from my childhood 14 years ago. It would have saved me a few years of denying and hiding away my paintings of my childhood.
