The Survivor Archives Project

Awesome page you have here, Joanne. Keep up the good work, and maybe some day I'd like to submit something for your archive. As a survivor of all sorts of abuse and still dealing with many issues on many levels, I'd like to commend you on your work here. Thank you for what you do.

A true story, Beyond the Tears begins with the suicide attempt of an abused and addicted twenty five-year-old woman. In the aftermath, she commits to counseling to recover from anxiety and depression. The author engages the reader in the therapy sessions, where the young woman reveals dysfunctional family relationships, including mental illness, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. The reader not only views the horrors that caused the author’s hopeless condition, but also experiences the wisdom that leads to health and happiness. Due to the therapeutic process, the woman discovers a path to love and the value of life, and she ultimately achieves a life that reflects health and happiness. By sharing the problems and solutions discussed in counseling, the author provides a message of hope.

I've had one horrible nightmare, all or in part, over and over, for years. While helping victims of abuse, something worked itself loose and I realized my nightmares were supressed memories of my own abuse.

I wrote a fictionalized novel about these dreams from a child's perspective. If I'm going to be anything it will be a writer, because I am pretty much socially paralyzed right now. Please have a look and my best to all here.

in faith, hope and love, tristan
