Book Child of Shame

Download or read book Child of Shame written by Roszalia Ellen and published by Strategic Book Publishing Rights Agency. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was born with a musical gift, to become a child prodigy by the age of three, but that gift was not allowed proper expression for the first decades of my life. I lived as a Child of Shame, although no one outside my family was aware of the incest and abuse I endured from my father. As a child growing up in a black community, I felt uncomfortable with my peers. Being tall and skinny, cruel boys at school stared and poked fun at me, intensifying my feelings of rejection. I left the sexual abuse at home, only to be subjugated to a different type when I got to school. I hated school! I never knew what a normal adolescent life was like, because at age 13 I was introduced to a hellish lifestyle by my sick-minded father, who wanted nothing from me but my body, mind, and soul, which he corrupted totally. The next three decades of my life involved a series of bad marriages, great physical and mental abuse, and more than one attempt on my life. The only thing that allowed me to survive those awful years was the expression of my musical talent. After three husbands and four children, I was able to take control of my life and destiny, to follow a course of meditation, prayer, and detoxification. I was recently diagnosed with invasive breast cancer, and now hope that my belief in a greater power will allow me to survive this as well.

Book So You ve Been Publicly Shamed

Download or read book So You ve Been Publicly Shamed written by Jon Ronson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a New York Times bestseller and from the author of The Psychopath Test, a captivating and brilliant exploration of one of our world's most underappreciated forces: shame. 'It's about the terror, isn't it?' 'The terror of what?' I said. 'The terror of being found out.' For the past three years, Jon Ronson has travelled the world meeting recipients of high-profile public shamings. The shamed are people like us - people who, say, made a joke on social media that came out badly, or made a mistake at work. Once their transgression is revealed, collective outrage circles with the force of a hurricane and the next thing they know they're being torn apart by an angry mob, jeered at, demonized, sometimes even fired from their job. A great renaissance of public shaming is sweeping our land. Justice has been democratized. The silent majority are getting a voice. But what are we doing with our voice? We are mercilessly finding people's faults. We are defining the boundaries of normality by ruining the lives of those outside it. We are using shame as a form of social control. Simultaneously powerful and hilarious in the way only Jon Ronson can be, So You've Been Publicly Shamed is a deeply honest book about modern life, full of eye-opening truths about the escalating war on human flaws - and the very scary part we all play in it.

  • Publisher : Milkweed Editions

  • ISBN : 1571317236
  • Pages : 89 pages

Download or read book The Shame written by Makenna Goodman and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “startlingly original” novel of “recursive loops through the mind of a woman who is breaking down from not making the art she absolutely must make” (Alexander Chee, Paris Review). Alma and her family live close to the land, raising chickens and sheep. While her husband works at a nearby college, she stays home with their young children, cleans, searches for secondhand goods online, and reads books by the women writers she adores. Then, one night, she abruptly leaves it all behind—speeding through the darkness, away from their Vermont homestead, bound for New York. In a series of flashbacks, Alma reveals the circumstances and choices that led to this moment: the joys and claustrophobia of their remote life; her fears and uncertainties about motherhood; the painfully awkward faculty dinners; her feelings of loneliness and failure; and her growing fascination with Celeste, a mysterious ceramicist and self-loving doppelgänger who becomes an obsession for Alma. A fable both blistering and surreal, The Shame is a propulsive, funny, and thought-provoking debut about a woman in isolation, whose mind—fueled by capitalism, motherhood, and the search for meaningful art—attempts to betray her. A Harvard Review Favorite Book of 2020, Selected by Miciah Bay Gault

Concise introductions to each chapter place the authors both historically and theoretically, and outline their emphases and contributions to our understanding of shame. Including many illustrative clinical examples, the book covers such topics as the relationship between shame and narcissism, shame's central place in affect theory, psychosis and shame, and shame in the literature of French psychoanalysis and philosophy.

Book Sensuality and Sexuality Across the Divide of Shame

Download or read book Sensuality and Sexuality Across the Divide of Shame written by Joseph D. Lichtenberg and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2011-02-25 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placed in a historical context, sexuality was once so prominent in psychoanalytic writing that sexual drive and psychoanalysis were synonymous. The exciting discovery of childhood sexuality filled the literature. Then other discoveries came to the fore until sexuality slipped far in the background. This book evokes the excitement of the original discoveries of childhood sexual experience while linking childhood sensuality and sexuality to adult attachment, romantic, and lustful love. This revised perspective offers the general reader insight into contemporary psychoanalytic thought, and presents clinicians with a perspective for exploring their patients sensuality and sexuality with renewed interest and knowledge.

  • ISBN : 0826166733
  • Pages : 375 pages

Download or read book The Psychology of Shame written by Gershen Kaufman, PhD and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this classic volume, Kaufman synthesizes object relations theory, interpersonal theory, and, in particular, Silvan Tompkins's affect theory, to provide a powerful and multidimensional view of shame. Using his own clinical experience, he illustrates the application of affect theory to general classes of shame-based syndromes including compulsive; schizoid, depressive, and paranoid; sexual dysfunction; splitting; and sociopathic. This second edition includes two new chapters in which Dr. Kaufman presents shame as a societal dynamic and shows its impact on culture. He examines the role of shame in shaping the evolving identity of racial, ethnic, and religious minorities, and expands his theory of governing scenes. This new edition will continue to be of keen interest to clinical psychiatrists as well as graduate students.

Book Internal Family Systems Therapy for Shame and Guilt

Download or read book Internal Family Systems Therapy for Shame and Guilt written by Martha Sweezy and published by Guilford Publications. This book was released on 2023-08-09 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Human beings create and participate in interdependent external systems like families, work environments, schools, and places of worship. In addition to these physiological and external systems, our psyche hosts a complex social system. The premise of this book is that the psyche's social system includes numerous separate centers of motivation with different points of view who communicate by way of feelings, sensations, and thoughts. In this light, we can understand the aftermath of trauma as a systemic response that brings many perspectives to the overriding goal of safety. While others have written about internal family systems therapy with children, in this book we'll be looking at the child parts of adults. In the chapters to come, I show how we can heal from shame-related identity injuries and release young parts from burdened bonds using treatment strategies that any mental health practitioner can learn to use. You need not be trained in IFS to understand my examples or follow my argument"--

Book Shame

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stephen Pattison
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2000-10-05
  • ISBN : 9780521568630
  • Pages : 360 pages

Download or read book Shame written by Stephen Pattison and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-10-05 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, first published in 2000, Stephen Pattison considers the nature of shame as it is discussed in the diverse discourses of literature, psychology, psychoanalysis, philosophy, history and sociology and concludes that 'shame' is not a single unitary phenomenon, but rather a set of separable but related understandings in different discourses. Situating chronic shame primarily within the metaphorical ecology of defilement, pollution and toxic unwantedness, Pattison goes on to examine the causes and effects of shame. He then considers the way in which Christianity has responded to and used shame. Psychologists, philosophers, theologians and therapists will find this a fascinating source of insight, and it will be of particular use to pastoral workers and those concerned with religion and mental health.
