Produktbeschreibung
A deep, heavy, and factual look at a real-life care history, foster care abuse, parental alienation, and emotional and sexual abuse. Kate's lived experience is told in its raw form through the eyes of the abused. She is not afraid to provide an insightful view, with unflinching honesty, speaking the truth of her emotional survival destructions. A raw glimpse into how abuse, alienation, and a flawed system impairs a life forever, and the effects of searching to gain validation and heal. Kate expresses: 'I have walked out of some of my therapy sessions excited I have a new direction and a new life goal. Then I am hit by the number "69 bus or swallowed up by an earthquake and I am a wreck in a smashed-up derby, raising red flags to stop everyone from hurting me.' From infancy to adulthood, physical and mental manipulation impaired Kate's life. She endured emotional and physical abuse in foster care, then sexual abuse by a priest and her employers. It's not just a few, but over 8 significant and complex traumas. Kate is questioning whether she will survive what's coming next.' The exploration delves into the intricate traumas Kate experiences from childhood to adulthood, revealing her strengths and vulnerabilities, as she honestly reflects on a prejudiced upbringing.

Autorenporträt
My life's purpose is to ensure my family feels loved, cared for, and protected from generational abuse and traumas. I have worked in the human services sector for most of my life, experiencing both perspectives. When you focus on my life, I may reveal the same experiences of abuse or pain in the same way as my reader. My life is not about sympathy, empathy, or sorrow, nor trying to garner attention on the depressing bad things that happened to me. It is about inspiring people to think about what may or may not work in the mental health sector, or foster system. I hope my experiences provide a gift in assisting in the reduction of suicide and the stigma that still lingers in the world.My memoir is not about how resilient I was in living through all the traumas. As I am a long way from that glorious redemption out of what happened to me. I have had a few positive outcomes from therapy, but believe me, I am struggling every day. Some days I can go to the shops with my family and others I contend to move from the bed to the lounge. My biggest struggle is that I don't know what tomorrow will bring. What I hold on to is that I am no longer allowing my life to continue with abuse.It may be controversial to speak my truth, but not everyone is full of roses and jumping celebratory, life-changing jellybeans. Not all of us can forget our pasts, build a bridge, and get over life barriers. There are times when we cannot continue our efforts to reach out. I grapple with suicidal thoughts daily, just like hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. I feel blessed to still be alive. Unfortunately, I am not blessed with a normally functioning brain; instead, I have a mixed cocktail of dysfunctional chemicals. Adding a touch of light humour to conclude my bio. Because I adore the sea, I've made the decision to forgo a traditional funeral and be cast into the ocean using an environmentally conscious urn. Unfortunately, I have a fear that upon entering the water, a shark might unintentionally swallow me and experience distress.
