We are failing as a society in how we deal with, and support, victims of sexual assault. This is a crime that has huge societal impacts, far beyond the psychological damage to the victim. This book, written by a psychic voted multiple times as "One of the Top 50 Psychics in the World", describes what he sees when he speaks with a woman who is trying to find her voice, her power when she's dealing with the cognitive fuzziness that comes from trying to place a sudden, violent act or (more typically) a slow burn from continual acts of abuseinto some sort of balance within her mind and understand the who, what, where, when, and why of what happened to her and, more importantly, what it all means about who she issince she is bombarded with a litany of stories telling her why something that happened TO HER is something she either (a) deserved or (b) caused.Both are wrong.You didn't get raped because you wore a short skirt; you got raped because the person raping you has no self-control or feels "justified" in taking something from you for which (crazy, but true) he feels entitled but the fact that they're wrong doesn't negate the impact these stories have, both short and long-term, on the victimsespecially if this happened to them as children, when cognitive anchors are still free-floating and seeing things with an undistorted wide angle lens more complex and, therefore, less likely.Your innate drive (typically derailed by gaslighters and parents and crazy Uncle Bobs and "authority figures", whether they have any actual authority or not, all trying to (literally) "mess with your mind" - leading to years of wandering trying to deny what you actually want) will ultimately get you where you "need to be"because no matter how many layers of confusion and distortion sit between you and personal truth . . . that "personal truth" needs youas much as you need it.This is a book about finding that personal truth and flipping "the script".
