Toxic Parents: How 5 Daughters Recover from the Emotional Abuse of Narcissistic Parents is the culmination of 5 stories of 5 brave women who have had to deal with the trauma of a toxic mother, father, or both. These are women who have come from all walks of life, financial backgrounds, sexual orientations and in some cases, even different countries. You will read about stolen childhoods, stolen innocence, physical and mental abuse, alcoholic and drug abuse. You will read about how several of these authors even had thoughts and attempts of suicide and self-harming episodes.

But you know what? They all made it through! They made it past the traumatic childhood and later found (at least) reasonable happiness, joy and/or contentment once they left the hell's gates of their parents' households. And they want you to know that you can find happiness too! It's not easy even once you leave, as you have to discover your true self and what gives you unhinged happiness first, but they give you their road maps of how they re-gathered their lives and eventually made them worth living. They also give you their advice on your ongoing relationship with your parents - OR whether you should even HAVE an ongoing relationship with them. They all have differing opinions based on their similar yet differing experiences.

But one thing is for certain - you are not alone on your journey to healing. There are people just like you trying to put the shattered pieces of their lives together. And these five survivors want not only to share their stories with you, but also share their discoveries for healing so that you can have that hope as well.

Don't forget, though, that seeing a professional to help you work through your trauma is always a fantastic idea and we recommend it whole-heartedly. If you do seek out a professional therapist, make sure you find one that you connect with. Therapists, fortunately or unfortunately, don't come in a "one-size-fits-all"; they all have different personalities and techniques. Like any relationship, don't settle if it doesn't feel right. If you don't feel a connection with the first therapist, try a second and third or however many it takes until you find a therapist whom you feel you can "spill your guts to" and feel great about it at the end of a session.

Good luck on your journey to independence, wholeness and happiness!
