Neglect-The Silent Abuser is a self-help book designed to help the reader know what to look for to recognize neglect and to heal from the effects of it. Neglect is often a hidden issue in the lives of people who experience problems with trust, relationships, depression, addictions, anxiety, and a generalized feeling of not being enough. On the outside neglected people look like they have it all together, but inside is a gnawing emptiness that is felt when they cannot distract themselves enough to avoid it. A list of high-risk family systems and numerous case examples help the reader to identify what neglect looks and feels like. This book also addresses the issue of over-control, which is an unrecognized part of neglect in those who were not allowed to have their own thoughts and feelings. Enod Gray has learned in practicing therapy and counseling for over 20 years, that many people seek help feeling bewildered about the problems in their lives and not realizing they were neglected. Once this root problem is recognized and addressed, the dysfunctional behaviors can come to awareness and be resolved. Eleven solution steps are provided for guidance and awareness on the path to healing, leading to a life of freedom and happiness. Enod Gray is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Sex Addiction Therapist, Professional Life Coach, and EMDR Practitioner in private practice. She specializes in childhood neglect and trauma, addictions, intimacy and relationship problems.
