Hear My Voice Terri Lanahan

In the page of this book you find poems written about the abuse I suffered as a child and the effects it had on me into adulthood. Most of these poems were written a long time ago. I have come so far in my healing journey. I hope that you the reader, will be able to relate to my poems, and identify your own pain, since that is the first step to healing. To this day, I still battle with PTSD, depression and anxiety. With treatment, I am able to live a wonderful life. For anyone who is struggling now, I want you to know there is help and hope. For those who are not survivors, I hope my poems will bring awareness to the pain inflicted on a child and the devastating effects both short term and long term it has on survivors. Awareness is key. God Bless you on your journey to healing.
