“As you heal, you see yourself more realistically. You accept that you are a person with strengths and weaknesses. You make the changes you can in your life and let go of the things that aren’t in your power to change. You learn that every part of you is valuable. And you realize that all of your thoughts and feelings are important, even when they’re painful or difficult.” HealingSelf AwarenessRecoveryAbuse SurvivorsEmotional HealthHealing InsightsSelf PerceptionNew PerspectiveSurvivors Of AbuseChild Abuse SurvivorsEmotional FreedomValuing Yourself Book:Beginning to Heal: A First Book for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse Source: Beginning to Heal: A First Book for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse
“In spite of the horror, in spite of the tragedy, in spite of the weeks of sleepless nights, I'm finally alive. I'm not pretending. I feel real. I'm not playing charades anymore. I wouldn't go back to the way I was for anything. I'm really like a different person. I'm where I am, and I'm making the most of it. I know I'm courageous now. I found out I had it in me to face this. — Barbara” HopeHealingRecoveryTrue SelfAuthentic SelfAbuse SurvivorsSurvivorsHealing JourneyReal SelfFace Your FearsHealing From AbuseRecovery From AbuseCharadesChild Abuse SurvivorHealing AbuseChild Abuse SurvivorsNew MeFeel AliveDeciding To ChangeGave Your Fears ChoiceHope And Disappointment Book:The Courage to Heal: A Guide for Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse Source: The Courage to Heal: A Guide for Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse
