Summary: 'The' First Book To Read After Being Raped
Comment: Firstly-being raped is 'the' most disgusting crime that a 'man' can commit upon a woman.I was raped 17 years ago by a 'man' I knew and who I thought was a friend.At the time Acquaintance/Date rape was not as recognised back in 1990 as it is now and for many many years I suffered in a silent turmoil, only recently being diagnosed with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) which has affected my life at times beyond repair.I read this book 16 years AFTER I was raped-mainly out of curiosity-but it has helped me in a subconscious way to realise, believe and come to terms with that my being raped was not my fault (which my parents lead me to believe was for many years and so fuelled my depression).Although Ms Matsakis has not herself been a victim of this crime (she is a PTSD counsellor) she writes with a 'knowledge' that feels as though she has-she says things that I have only ever verbally experienced with other (female) rape victims and because of this the content did at times make me cry-mainly I suppose my way of finally coming to terms with what happened to me.I originally gave this book 4/5 stars because there are a few things I don't agree with (e.g.the contruction of a 'safe space' in a corner of a room-your whole house should be a safe space not just a corner) but I changed it to 5 because it is only a small piece when compared to the whole of the book content.I do advise this book being 'the' first book a victim of this crime reads before tackling anything else.I don't think you will be disappointed.
