This past week we met Maggie and Angie, who were very open and candid about their lives. They are brave, compassionate survivors who are struggling to build a quality life from a background of repeated abuse.
Maggie feels she is losing herself and is depressed with the quality of her life. She has healed so many wounds from her childhood but is still so far from the peace she longs for. Now she is even losing her voice! She believes it is from the stress of her life and not a physical issue. Angie has a long history with food addiction and codependency. She did not come from a family that offered a good example to an impressionable child. She was the oldest child in a household with a workaholic father and a seriously depressed mother. It was Angie’s job to take care of everybody. No wonder she did not learn to care for herself. She found her comfort in food.
These women have a great deal in common, from sexual, emotional abuse to parents who had no parenting skills, and a childhood scarce in nurturing. Their five weeks with Dr. Chris will be intensive. But they are committed to their healing and brave enough to share their experiences with you on Healing Your Life with Dr. Chris!
