Sinopse

I started this podcast because I felt I had a story to tell. As an incest survivor, I wanted others to know that life does not suddenly become great because abuse ends; but that is when the real work begins. Child abuse has affected all aspects of my life, and its damage is always the elephant in the room. While every topic will not be about abuse, it's aftermath is the reason why I think and feel as I do. I will use this platform to share my thoughts and feelings about marriage, motherhood, and myself from the perspective of someone who has lived through unspeakable physical and emotional injury. If my life's experiences can help someone else get through whatever abuse or challenges they may be facing, then I have done a great thing by sharing. This podcast is for anyone who has a lot to say and no one who will listen. It is for that person who feels ashamed for having unconventional thoughts about their life and are afraid to voice them. It is for women who have realized that marriage, motherhood, and dealing with self-awareness is not as easy or as fun as you thought it would be. If this is you, then welcome to Being Overtly Debbie. New Episodes will be released every Monday and Thursday.

Download Episode When I became a mother, I wanted to give my kids everything I did not have growing up. Unlike my upbringing, I wanted theirs to be associated with fond memories, love, and great times. It was my goal to be the best mom I could be. I was everything and did everything for them. When they were young, it was great; they seem to appreciate everything I did. I would spend hours on end, running myself ragged, taking them to gymnastics, swim and soccer practices. Then, there were museums and play dates, vacations

      Today I pose the question, Is abuse cyclic? According to the dictionary, one of the definitions of cyclic is - occurring in cycles; regularly repeated.       Download Episode   Abuse of Others     While I do not believe that all victims of abuse inflict abuse onto other innocent people, I do know that many do enact various forms of maltreatment on the innocent or mistreat themselves. The self-hate one feels, often is redirected towards the people who are the closest to you. As re-offending pertains to maltreatment of others, the abuse can manifest itself in forms of :     1. Verbal/Emotional abuse - can be equally or more damaging as physical abuse because it is aimed to destroy how one feels about oneself.     2. Physical abuse - is used to keep one subservient to another or intimidate.     3. Abandonment - the abused victim cannot care for themselves much less another person, or they are afraid to get close, so they’d rather stay away.     One thing we must understand is that Abuse says more about the
