Cry Hard and Swim
Jacqueline Spring
This is the true story of the childhood and therapy of an incest survivor - Jacqueline Spring (a pseudonym) was the youngest of seven children, born into a Glaswegian family that appeared conventionally at ease both emotionally and materially. But the picture that emerges here in letters to her mother, in poems and narration is one of pain and immense bewilderment caused by her father\'s sexual advances. The frightened, compliant child was pressured by family silence never to refer to what was going on inside or outside the family. It was only years later, in therapy - an experience that was to be profoundly transforming - that she began to confront her own psychological mutilation. Her therapist, Eve, through her warmth and acceptance, helped Jacqueline to rid herself of her guilt and self-hatred. And she began to learn how common her feelings and conflicts were in talking to other women in incest survivors\' groups. It is for them and for the many workers who deal with survivors that she has described what was for her this \'beautiful and ultimately healing journey\'
