Re: My place in ACEs?

Cheryl Boese ·
Hi Janie, It sounds like you have used your personal tragic experience in a creative and generous way. I love the idea of putting resources out there for kids who may be in the midst of their own ACEs. I have only begun my journey, as I am still absorbing all the information in "Childhood Disrupted". I knew about the psychological consequences of my own ACEs, but it never occurred to me that my sudden onset of health problems as I turned fifty this year could have any relationship to my...

The work is wonderful and important and I wonder if the writing alone is one part of your great success as I know it can be one powerful and healthful tool. I also wonder if your book, though geared towards kids, wouldn't be good for adults. There's a book being put together (out in one month) called Trigger Points for survivors of abuse and it's about how we parent. A lot of the pieces are about learning to parent ourselves and raise our emotional selves. I know I've learned so much about...

Thank you Cissy for your encouragement. The Emily book is good for both young teens and adults. One woman in her 50's wrote a review on Amazon for the Emily book and said that it was the hardest book she ever loved. The emotional journey of Emily brings one in touch with their inner child and can help to understand an heal that child. One man in his 70's said that if he would have read my book as a boy he would have treated girls much nicer. I would love to have my book posted on your face...

Janie, I don't seem to be able to find my place around here either, no fault of yours certainly, but it's more than that the site isn't well organized. I'm a "retired" (not exactly voluntarily) male in Ventura County on fixed income trying to get therapy for C-PTSD with alexithymia and I can't find either term here with the site search. My late mother was neck-deep in cluster B personality disorders, I counted 5 and yes I know by "orthodox" accounting there aren't supposed to be that many,...
