To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.
-Bertrand Russell
What seemed like a scene straight out of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey a few years ago has become a reality.
I am no shrinking violet…no truly effective advocate can be. For all those men and women who were sexually abused as children I am firmly planted in their corner.
Recently, I was watching an episode of the HBO series ENLIGHTENED. This dramady follows the brilliant actress, LAURA DERN as a divorced, self-destructive woman determined to live an “enlightened” life.
I am pissed as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore!
That’s exactly what I felt like screaming out my 9th floor office window when I read Dotti Sandusky’s testimony.
For most shrinks out there, it’s all talk (therapy). Kick in a box of Kleenex, the comfy couch, call in a couple prescriptions, and call it a day (or rather, “days”.
The truth hurts.
True. A healthy heaping of reality can be brutal.
My heart is pounding. Palms sweating. Ears ringing. Feels like I’m having a full-on anxiety attack.
You know the saying, “Do unto others as you would yourself”? For sexual abuse survivors, this maxim usually plays out in reverse.
