<p>Throughout this book experience how one feels so alone during periods of struggling with abandonment neglect denial pain shame guilt self-hatred no sense of self dissociation suicide ideology among others. </p> <p>All types of abuse; verbal physical sexual and psychological/emotional; through acts of bullying ridicule bias actions violence etc.; can bestow inadequate feelings onto the victim of any age race sexual preference religion or nationality. </p> <p>These illustrations and text came out through my hands at times even my left hand and mostly throughout the night as I kept a pad and pencil on the floor next to my bed. It was during times of memories too painful to speak of that these were released from me. I would bring these with me to therapy hand them to my therapist and then we slowly spoke of them. </p> <p>I assure you this was a tremendous powerful tool that helped me to move through difficult issues. </p> <p>Many times mental health treatment was and is unheard of or not available at all. People did what they had to do with the resources at hand. Often this was/is denial and survival. </p> <p>Please keep in mind that these illustrations and text are not to incriminate anyone. It is to help those abused connect to feelings they are presently experiencing. </p>
