Welcome to the January 2012 Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse!
I hope everyone is having a good new year.
Healing and Therapy:
-Meg from Megs submitted, Moving In.
She wrote, "Because of the trauma and abuse my body endured, it's been really hard for me to accept the "body experience." I'm often detached and unwilling to listen to what my body tries to tell me. I've recently realized it's time to "move back in" and this is what I wrote about it (beginning at paragraph 3)."
-Lauren from Self Help and Recovery submitted, Shame Is Your Enemy.
-Mike McBride from Child Abuse Survivor submitted, Successful Healers.
He wrote, "I found an article that I really thought was applicable to survivors in their healing process, even though it wasn't about healing, and wrote about the tips that were given and how they apply!"
Survivor Stories:
-Michelle I'Anson from My Life as a Strife Survivor submitted, The Harshest Lesson.
She wrote, "Learning to love myself has been hard."
-Joan Angel from Angels of Secrets submitted, On Angels Wings.
Aftermath:
-April Nicole from A Whisper From My Heart submitted, Speak Up or Stay Quiet.
In The News:
-Charles Chua C K from All About Living With Life submitted, P.L.E.A.S.E. Spend Time With Your Child.
