Childhood Sexual Abuse: when normal isn't normal

When childhood sexual abuse takes place behind closed doors the child has no point of reference so often doesn’t know that what’s happening shouldn’t be happening. All they know is that they want to avoid being left with the perpetrator at all costs, often creating complex post-traumatic stress disorder. In this episode, Carolyn Whitehouse shares her story of how she chose university as her route out only to discover the longer term impact on her corporate and business career, of that undiagnosed C-PTSD.
