Publisher's Synopsis
"This exploration of coercive control and physical abuse emerges from my personal healing journey. It stems from the profound realization of a recurring pattern that has significantly shaped my life. Growing up with an exceedingly controlling father, whose behaviors at times escalated into outright abuse, provided the unsettling backdrop against which I unwittingly navigated relationships in adulthood. Unaware of the insidious pattern I was following, the situation only worsened with each new relationship. It wasn't until later in life, after escaping the most mind fucking circumstances of my life (explored in my book, 'The Sociopath's Puppet'), that I began my journey of healing.
This book aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of both coercive control and physical abuse, examining their interconnections, individual characteristics, and the collective impact on victims. It serves as a resource for those experiencing or supporting individuals facing these challenges, offering insights into recognition, reporting, and the path to healing and prevention.
