A book recommendation

I've been reading a book, it's called "the truth about rape" by Teresa m. Lauer MA. I actually skipped straight to section 2 of the book, section 1 is the author's journal entries describing her recovery from being raped. Section 2 deals with and describes in detail the various questions one might need answers to following the trauma of rape and also questions and advice regarding recovery and moving on after being raped. At present my head isn't in the best place to be reading descriptions and journal entries depicting someone else's recovery journey, instead I simply needed something else, what that something was I wasn't entirely sure, but I skipped straight through to section 2 and instead started to deal with the facts, the truths, the how to 's and the whys relating to rape. Through my reading I learned several things I hadn't realised earlier, I'd been suffering from a few different coping techniques without even knowing about it, the book touched upon and answered questions regarding "avoidance" (avoiding dealing with the emotions relating to the rape to avoid feeling them again) "Denial" (refusing to admit we are not coping with the situation we are in and instead burying our feelings and emotions regarding the rape) "bargaining" this I was aware of simply as the "what if" stage that I had never really been able to let go of. Reading all this information gave me something I very much needed at this point in my journey, validation, the knowledge that what I am feeling, the emotions I was experiencing were completely real and valid feelings, in short, I was not going crazy. I was not imagining these feelings, the emotions were very much real, in fact these were things I would never ever get away from, never escape, instead I would learn to accept them for what they are, memories, albeit bad ones, of an incident in my past that I would never be able to forget or change. So it would appear that acceptance was a step I needed to take, accepting what happened to me, does not mean I condone their actions, it simply means that I understand that this happened and I understand that the past cannot be undone, the memories cannot be changed and that I accept this for what it is in order to move forward in my journey. I don't have to like it, just accept that it happened and can never be altered or changed. All I have control of anymore are my own reactions to my past, I can choose to be controlled by it OR I can choose to instead become the master of my own destiny by facing the future with a courage I've never discovered before.
