  Some excellent books: One Day at a Time (by AlAnon), Safe People (Cloud and Townsend), It'll Never Happen to Me (don't remember who), um... there's lots. I'm all about the self-help books. A really great one I found that's actually about parenting, but works for all aspects of life is "How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids Will Talk" by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish and it's all about how to talk with someone and reason things out and not use violence. Oh, and there's an organization called Non-Violent Communication and they have a whole series of excellent books. I have a kid, so I read stuff on how to break the cycle. Just because our parents treated us like crap doesn't mean we ARE crap or that we have to treat anybody else that way. xoxo

  It takes time, strength, a higher power, friends, support, prayer, set backs.... There is no instant pill to fix life, sadly (I tried LOTS when I was younger, none of them medically prescribed if you get my meaning). You just keep going because it beats the hell out of the alternative. Hang in there
