We Survived

We Survived - A True Story of Control and Mental and Physical Abuse immediately came to mind as a title for my book. I intended to draw attention to a problem that has been ignored or hidden for many years. Thankfully, people are more willing to discuss this issue today. I am constantly amazed at the number of people I speak with who admit to being abused in one way or another. When you grow up in a family that does not abuse, you are unaware of the many signals and are ashamed to say it happened to you. In writing this book, I hope to illustrate how manipulation works in your relationship without you realizing it. Most people are afraid to take steps to help themselves because they are too scared. This book covers the manners of manipulation, what to look for, what to avoid, and how to get help while you and your loved ones remain safe. It also lets you know that living in an uncontrolled atmosphere is possible.
