| About
Our Book: |
| It was not until I found myself in an abusive failing marriage, nonexistent career, depleted financial state and my mind severely emotionally in crisis that I realized I had been merely surviving all my life. Extremely suicidal with no vision of hope I began seeking answers and help outside my comfort zone. I came across the writings of Goessoftly. In conflicting excitement I wept and rejoiced at the same time. You hurt My Hurt seemed to have been written about me and just for me. Her delicately interlaced words of wisdom, compassion and deep perceptive familiarity of the unrelentless trauma that emotional, physical and sexual abuse holds is remarkable. Nearly four years after being diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder and having found Goessoftly’s message of hope in You hurt My Hurt I am no longer a survivor but now also a victor. Through the dedication, true friendship, pure love and extremely hard work of Goessoftly, my therapist and myself I am no longer multiple. I most surely would have died without Goessoftly’s help and guidance through the murk of the darkness I was drowning in. Today, I am no longer surviving but truly living in laughter, love and with the awareness that there is always hope even when the world seems it’s darkest. You hurt My Hurt is for anyone who has ever dealt with deep emotional trauma and those closest to them; for those individuals and their families struggling with DID and abuse. Rachel Fay Solomon Domestic, Cult and Occult abuse survivor. ********** Goessoftly is a retired therapist with more than forty years of experience counseling in one form or another. This included working with severely emotionally disturbed, physically, sexually and psychologically abused children, teenagers and adults. She came to realize early in her work how possible it is when seeking to help and to heal, to instead place more hurt onto the person through mistakes made. Walk alongside this compassionate and caring therapist as she reveals to you the internal world of Dissociative Identity Disorders. You will see not only the grief and pain and torment of the abuse survivor’s experience, but you will also see nurturing and understanding and acceptance flow out through a seasoned professional. Take this fascinating and informative walk through the pages of You hurt my Hurt. You may never be the same again! Jane. Observer, writer and friend. ********** Searching for help via the internet was the last resort we felt like we had in May of 2003. If it had not been for us finding You hurt My Hurt website and finding help with the retired therapist on that website, I don't know that we would be writing this today. Goessoftly helped us pull ourselves up and back through the depths of self destruction and horrors of abuse and got us to reclaim our life. I am one insider of a 36 year old mutilple who suffers from servere cult abuse. I am surviving and living but only because of the wonderful friendship and devoted help of Goessoftly. Thank you, Softly, for everything you have done for us and many more! Silent Helper - inside personality, suvivor of domestic and cult abuse. ********** Goessoftly’s writings have long-been a source of comfort and kindness to survivors of ritual abuse and other severe trauma. Her compassionate prose and poetry are now available in a book that survivors can hold, read, and share. The strength of this work lies in its deep understanding of the pain that children endure when violated by the adults in their lives. Responses to severe trauma are made easily understandable, including dissociation, formation of “alter personalities”, “body memories”, flashbacks, self-recrimination, and fear of trusting others. This book does not offer quick or superficial fixes. Instead, these writings enable survivors to cry, to feel compassion for themselves, to acknowledge their emotions and experience, to connect to the simple life-long wish to love and be loved. It provides guideposts for healing, to lovingly work with all parts of the hurt self and to develop strength in ones own convictions. It includes wondrous stories that help hurt child “parts” feel understood, soothed, and valued. Based on her extensive experience providing psychotherapy to hundreds of survivors of horrific childhoods, Goessoftly helps other therapists understand how to fully “hear” and “contain” survivors' pain. And she helps emergency healthcare providers respond with greater sensitivity and respect to terrified and dissociative clients. This book will help survivors feel cared for, and will help the rest of us increase our capacity to care for them. Ellen Lacter PhD. Psychologist treating Dissociative Disorders and ritual abuse trauma in San Diego, California. Website: http://www.endritualabuse.org |

the Author: |
I found Softly’s writing, “You hurt My Hurt” after being abused and betrayed by my counselors. Dealing with Dissociative Identity Disorder is hard enough but to add the abuse of ones counselors threw me into a bigger emotional mess. Softly gently came into my life with her understanding, love, support and friendship. She helped to heal the hurts of the other counselors and set me back on the path of healing. Through her writings and understanding of pain I found encouragement and wisdom to tackle emotional areas of my life I had struggled with for years. Now, not only have I found peace and joy but my insiders have merged with me into wholeness. Today, I have an excitement about life that I have never had. “You hurt My Hurt " is for therapists and counselors who work with Multiples, those who live with someone dealing with DID or those who have DID…..you will find the help you need. B. Abuse Surivor ********** The number of ritually abused survivors, all of whom are dissociative, is staggering, and yet neither the public nor most psychotherapists acknowledge or understand this. For years, Goessoftly has educated us through her writings, and helped countless survivors, both multiple and mono, recover the capacity to hope and to feel loved. If our purpose on earth involves uplifting the souls of others, Goessoftly has accomplished this through this book taken from her previous website, You hurt my Hurt.. Pamela J.
