REPAIR: A Program for Recovery from Incest & Childhood Sexual Abuse — Adult Version
Author: Marjorie McKinnon
Paperback (5.5 x 8.5) 140 pages
$20.00 plus shipping
Available from: http://thelamplighters.org/_wsn/page4.html
|
BACK COVER:
Marjorie McKinnon has been writing since the age of thirteen, when she wrote poetry to hide her pain. Despite her father's confession in her mid-thirties about an incestuous relationship he'd had with her, she had buried all memories of the childhood trauma. During recovery she wrote about her experience and what it was like to emerge on the other side of "the bridge of recovery." It is a chronicle of growing up in small Midwestern towns in a Catholic family and of hiding her anguish behind words, poetry that she termed her inner voices. It is also a detailed account of the journey one takes in going from a place of despair to one of joy. That book, titled Let Me Hurt You and Don't Cry Out became her first attempt to publish.

SECRET STRENGTH FOR DEPRESSION SUFFERERS — E-Book
|
REVIEWS:
Many people who suffer childhood abuse wonder, “Why did God allow me to be hurt so badly?” and think “I must be so unlovable, even God can’t love me.” Rather than blaming the people who abuse them, many people blame God for their suffering and turn their backs on Him. They trudge and struggle through life on their own without ever asking for, or rejecting, God’s help. Most of these people suffer with unexplainable depression.
Ms Codarly has climbed out of depression and survived and now has taken the time to share her experiences to help others. She explains why God allowed you to suffer – or if He did. If you feel you are wandering aimlessly in your life or that life seems hopeless and purposeless, Secret Strength For Depression Sufferers could be helpful. If you are one of those people who turned your back on God and blamed Him, this may help you to reconnect with God and find understanding. This book was written for you!
