Goodbye, Sweet Girl: A Story of Domestic Violence and Survival, by Kelly Sundberg
2.0
As a survivor childhood abuse, and of an abusive first marriage, I sometimes find healing in either sharing my own story or hearing the stories of other survivors. I have to be careful, though, because sometimes the stories hit too close to home, and can be upsetting and triggering.
If you want to understand the dynamics of an abusive domestic relationship, or if you've ever wondered, "Why does she STAY with him? Why doesn't she just LEAVE?" this book -- and Kelly's personal story -- will help you understand the complex dynamics and why it isn't that easy. If you have been in an abusive, manipulative relationship you may find this too painful to read, or you may find it therapeutic.
