synopsis

Synopsis

The nightly terror is real. And so are the words... Shhhh ... this is our little secret ... don t tell anyone. On the outside, Lori Golden had a perfect childhood. A perfect family. A perfect upbringing. What Lori really had was a perfect house of lies. To the outside ... and within the confines of the walls. The sexual abuse that started at the age of five for Lori Golden became a wall of silent screams. Screams that were hidden from herself and from the world for decades. Until she could do and did the tell. When sexual abuse occurs, you are alone with your abuser, creating a unique kind of aloneness. One that is dark and sinister. You feel hopeless in the belief that you could get better, or the pain could end. Your aloneness becomes so profound that it makes you want to self-destruct, even feel suicidal. You should embrace your story and let your inner abused child speak out. Learn how to love your child within and dedicate yourself to achieving your own personal freedom from its bondage. You lived through the worst of it as a child and survived. You can live freely once again. Lori Golden learned that life is possible after a decade of sexual abuse. Her story ... her recovery ... and now her work as a therapist and speaker have opened doors for thousands.

Book Excerpt

My House of Lies: Awakening from a Childhood of Sexual Abuse

Breaking my silence was essential to my healing.

Once “our secret” was out, my fear escalated. I lived in constant terror of being killed because “the code of silence” had been broken … as if I were in the Mafia. It was instilled at a very young age: “Don’t tell.” Paranoia set in. When a man pulled up next to me at a stoplight, I believed he would raise a gun and shoot me. I had images of crashing my car or driving off a bridge. Either I was going to be killed or kill myself. BUT … I … TOLD!
