My first book intends to create awareness about abuse and domestic violence within a family and the aftermath of its influence on its victims, especially women and children. Since it's my Memoir, I also describe my life before the arranged marriage from birth to childhood to teenage to adult years in 4 different countries - Jamaica, Malaysia, Nigeria, and India. This book is based on my true-life story after fifteen years of suffering a manipulating, controlling, isolated, gaslighting, aggressive, violent, and abusive married life in India, Muscat, and Canada. I did not understand that I was living in an Abusive relationship, was living in self-denial because of my children, and was afraid to break up the marriage even though I made some futile attempts to do so. Unfortunately, this delay resulted in more harm than I thought it would, not only to myself but to the children as well. It took more than eleven years later after escaping a sociopathic narcissistic spouse, along with my four sons, to establish a more peaceful and enjoyable life. My happiness of regaining the freedom I lost while in the marriage and the emancipation from mental slavery after coming to Canada gave us the needed support and help. So, it was a blessing in disguise for deciding to go to Canada and finally becoming citizens of which, we are so proud. Broken people like ourselves feel easily connected when we hear the stories of other people, which makes us feel stronger inside in knowing that we are not the only ones suffering in silence. We feel uplifted and motivated to do more for others just like us!
