Child Abuse Effects:

Overcoming the Effects of an Abusive Childhood!







I am offering a free child abuse effects tool to help Relationship-with-Self viewers face the past; that is, I want to teach you how to heal from your child abuse story with the help of these “step-by-step” articles (i.e., also in the version of a free e-book.)

This free e-book called, “Healing from Your Child Abuse Story Once and For All,” was inspired by my personal experience, by my clients' personal experiences, and by Relationship-with-Self viewers who have courageously posted their child abuse stories on the Website.

I have taken all the advice that I have given to several of my clients, and compiled all of it here for you to indulge into whenever you need too.

This e-book is a source of several articles that you’ll find listed below. Each article is written in order of importance, as a step-by-step guide for regaining your freedom from child abuse effects.

Anytime you need advice on how to handle abusive parents, abusive relatives or friends, or even abusive strangers, come back to these articles and follow the advice I have provided; free of charge!

And just so you know, if you have any questions or concerns about your current abusive situation and you need one on one support, please don’t hesitate to contact me; I’m only an e-mail away!

The first step of overcoming child abuse effects...Face Your Past!

“One of the first steps to overcoming generational curses is to recognize what you’re dealing with. Identify it. Don’t ignore it. Don’t try to sweep it under the rug and hope that it will go away. It won’t.” Joel Osteen

Have you ever felt the emotions of child abuse effects such as these…

  • Have you ever felt alone, especially when you’re with the one/ones who abused you?
  • Have you ever found yourself getting angry when thinking about or talking to the ones who have hurt you in the past?
  • Do you have a difficult time controlling your emotions and often feel like your emotions are controlling you?
  • Have you ever abused alcohol or drugs so you wouldn’t have to deal with the pain from the past?
  • Do you have a hard time allowing yourself to feel good without feeling guilty about it?
  • Do you have low, low, low, and did I say low self-esteem; that is, you often do not like yourself?
  • Have you experienced periods of severe depression or anxiety and have had difficulty understanding why?

If this is you, chances are, you’ve experienced child abuse effects.

Many times, one is not aware of his or her emotions, especially when one has been physically, verbally, mentally, or sexually abused in the past.

However, it’s important to realize that your emotions are there for a reason, acting as an alarm system; warning you when something isn’t right.

In addition, child abuse effects can last a lifetime, affecting one’s ability to function in a healthy, loving manner. However, when one decides to overcome the past, he or she will need to take this first step of facing the past, which by all means is not an easy thing to do.

I recently had a client tell me, “Why go back to the past? It’s the past and I want to move forward!”

Of course, this is an excellent way of thinking, but in this case, her past continues to be her present because she continues to struggle with unnecessary problems. I personally believe she is afraid of dealing with the past, which is keeping her from moving forward!

However, when you decide to go back to those painful places, it’s vital that you’re aware that sharing your child abuse story will reopen wounds of painful memories, painful emotions, and unresolved conflict (i.e., child abuse effects), which is the reason that many people never take this first step to begin with.

However, don’t let this stop you! In the end, during the last final step, you’ll be glad that you took action!

If you think about it for a minute, going back to the past isn't any different than it is now; it's just a matter of doing it! What I mean by this is, if you're currently feeling unhappy about yourself, what is the danger of going back to the past? For all you know, it might do you some good!

Now are you ready to begin healing? Are you ready to find the peace that you’ve been after for so many years?

Great!

Follow these steps that I’m about ready to give you and you’ll definitely be on your way!
