Absent: How to Heal from Emotionally Toxic Parents

A Grown-Up’s Guide to Healing from Childhood Neglect, Manipulation, Trauma and Abusive Emotional Behavior

By: Olivia K. Rice

Narrated by: Janna L Cardia

Do you feel like your relationship with your parents is always bringing you down? Do they blame you for their problems, for being a thorn in their shoes, always endeavoring to make you feel like the most massive burden they’ve ever had to carry?

Do they want to control all aspects of your life, continually being dissatisfied with the choices you make?

Do they tend to humiliate and manipulate you, making you feel like nothing you do is good enough, that none of your efforts pay off, all while making themselves out to be exceptionally gifted and talented?

Abusive parents tend to share common traits - they are constantly negatively reactive, lack empathy, are extremely controlling, always critical, and continuously transfer blame to you.

If your parent ticks any of those boxes, then you are likely already aware of who and what you're dealing with. But from here on, things can only get better if you let them.

In Absent, you will discover:

• How to tend to your inner child, and give them the care and compassion they have always been longing for
• The art of letting go as a way to empower you on your healing journey
• The importance of self-compassion and how to effectively practice it to stop all forms of self-blame for things you never had any control over
• Why freeing yourself from anger and resentment will help you to understand your parent's behavior
  

And much more.

It’s time to stop suffering from the consequences of past events you never even had control over, remove yourself from the fog that's been blinding your whole being, and step into a burden-free life.

If you’re ready to explore the deepest and darkest parts of your childhood and come out empowered, then scroll up and get this audiobook today.

Good content

Do yourself a favor and purchase this book. This book has so much good content and tips to help anyone struggling with toxic parents or relationships.

Very Helpful

Very helpful book. I would listen to it again. . . . . . . . .

Half way into the book & had to write a review

I’m half way into the book and just HAD to write a review. This book is INCREDIBLE. I’m not done with it yet and I already intend on rereading it. Almost every sentence is powerful in some way. It’s concise- to the point but still remains validating and engaging. Today I read chapter 2 and balled my eyes out. It was a good cry- a much needed cry. It felt so good to weep for my inner child and not feel ashamed for having that emotional response. I’m 27 years old and am JUST NOW learning how to identify & process my own emotions. I felt as though this book was written for me. If you experienced emotional neglect as a child, I HIGHLY recommend this book.

Great tactical advice

I was pleasantly surprised by how helpful this book was for me! I am dealing with with toxic parents and this helped me to put things into perspective and gave real tips on how to heal and what to notice. Thank you!!

Great advice! It’s helping me heal...

My childhood was rough. I grew up with a father who was just downright mean for no reason. My mother was stuck in “Lala land” and just didn’t have a clue how to care for 3 children. It’s amazing to learn what you don’t know and how to reparent yourself. I really appreciate this book for helping me face my early childhood trauma so I can identify and release my pain to actually start healing
