    About this ebook

    What happened to happily ever after? Can it exist? From author Barbara Studham’s experience, the answer is no. Psychopathetic is a memoir of emotional violence. Read how Barbara, ran from a twenty-year abusive marriage into the arms of a five-year equally destructive relationship with a man who professed to love her. Thousands of women pass through safe shelters each year to escape abusive spouses, partners or other family members. Abuse is not limited to bruises and blood, but often hidden between layers of emotional scars. Emotional violence, although viewed as less serious than physical violence, can leave as many scars: rejection, fear, low self-esteem, isolation, and guilt. Overwhelmed by her situation, and desperate to protect her children, Barbara saw no way out until one night freedom opened a door!

    Barbara Studham

    Over a period of twenty years, I have raised four grandchildren with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. My two memoirs: Two Decades Of Diapers, and, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: The Teen Years, describe the challenges, hopes, and broken dreams I faced while struggling to maintain our family unit. I decided to share my story in the hope of supporting all individuals with FAS, their caregivers, support workers, and advocates, and to educate the public on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. Born in Portsmouth, England, I immigrated to Canada in 1974 and currently live in Hamilton, Ontario. I also write fiction, including two series: Under The Shanklin Sky, and, I, Gossip. Writing fiction could not be more different from writing memoir. Memoir can be painful to pen, but writing fiction brings me joy. I hope reading my books will bring you joy too!
