Living beyond Childhood Abuse

I am a survivor. Many of us are, whether of physical, verbal or sexual abuse as children. Sadly, we came from all backgrounds, rich, poor, urban, suburban. Some of us make it and go on to lead productive lives. Others do not fare as well, and end up dysfunctional, sometimes alcoholic, drug addicted or even dead.
What gets the abused child through to adulthood and an enjoyable life are the comfort zones that give hope and support. Consider becoming a positive influence in a small, sad someone's life the next time you find them crying or acting out in strange ways. You can never know how much good you do with a simple act of kindness.
