NAASCA Posters / Essays Celebrating April as National Child Abuse Awareness Month

Child Abuse lives everywhere -- don't be afraid to talk about it
27 of 30 ..

  Child Abuse lives ..
...... in every community
...... spiritually challenging all


Some thoughts:

Innocent & guilt free, we share feelings of shame & fear

We should accept no responsibility for our abuse in childhood

Our low self-esteem and feelings of worthlessness are lies

Our lives changed forever, the moment we were first violated

We were diverted from our destiny

Our scars can become a permanent part of who we are

We suffer a kind of insanity often involving deep depression

The resentments we carry are controlling us, defining us

We are not alone

We are as sick as our secrets

Recovery is possible, if we work for it

We can have a complete change in our character

We can have a new altitude on life .. feel useful

We can serve the world by helping rid it of child abuse

Its better to recover together than to survive alone

About Recovery

A primary mission at the National Association of Adult Survivors of Child Abuse is to help abused people who have reached maturity get into recovery.

We've been there, and our membership includes people who have recovered in a number of ways, many of us using one or more of the many resources we recommend on our site.
