About Iron Legacy: Childhood Trauma And Adult
Is your family life chaotic? Do you have kids with behavioral or drug problems? Do you avoid your parents—or wish you could? Have you fallen in love with someone who treated you badly or treated someone badly who fell in love with you? More than once? More than twice? Are you addicted to alcohol or pills or sex or porn or shopping or work or gambling or Twitter or risk? Are you sober but still miserable? Do you suffer anxiety or depression that doesn't improve with medication? With therapy? With multiple tries at therapy?Your problems likely stem from childhood trauma. Growing up, one in four Americans suffers abuse, neglect, or adversity severe enough to affect normal development. Abuse doesn't always leave bruises, and neglect doesn't always mean dirty clothes; emotional abuse and emotional neglect cause comparable damage. This damage is cognitive, emotional, and physical, visible in brain scans as well as behavior. It makes us vulnerable to addiction, obesity, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, and early death. Along the way, it distorts our perceptions, derails our plans, and sabotages our relationships.Donna Bevan-Lee knows all about such effects. Having survived an abusive childhood and pioneered the treatment of other survivors, she distills forty years' clinical experience plus exciting new research in Iron Legacy: Childhood Trauma and Adult Transformation. A comprehensive guide to understanding and overcoming complex trauma, Iron Legacy goes beyond the codependency movement she helped launch, drawing on work in multiple disciplines to offer practical strategies for healing. And woven throughout this useful guide is the author's inspiring story of survival, resistance, and transcendence.
