But of course, anybody who underwent an abuse goes to a post-traumatic stress. If not corrected, it could harm the individual and others as well. It must be assessed and guided accordingly.

Yes, Dr. Judith Lewis Herman *is* brilliant and I, too, an grateful for BEYOND TRAUMA. . . which I'm now looking to again to maybe explain to an adult daughter *why* I, Mom, did not stay married to Dad . . .

"Trauma and Recovery" really influenced me, as a person.
My favorite line of hers; "Borderline personality is frequently used within the mental health community as little more than a sophisticated insult."
Well, not really, but its excellent.
But she uses "narcissistic personality disorder" a lot, which seems to me little more than a less sophisticated insult!
I'm just reading father/daughter incest, and soon as you start reading it you realize how much it changed the world.
May this video always be available on YouTube. It's a fantastic way for survivors of trauma (sexual, violence, etc.) to learn how to take steps toward healing.
