Flashbacks of being abused

My sister has been having flashbacks of being abused by our uncle. Now she is starting to remember more and more each day and it is taking a toll on her life. She is living in Perth atm and I would like to send her something she can look at or read to give her strength during hard times Does anyone have any ideas?

I don't want to sound rude or dismiss her claims of abuse but is she on any medication? I had flash backs of being rapped by a family member and it sent me bonkers, I couldn't eat or sleep and wouldn't see my family because I thought they were lying to me and trying to protect the "rapist". In actuality the prescription medication I was on sent me into phycosis. Just be an ear to listen.

Healing can only come from within , it's a decision to forgive both yourself and the offender .. Councilling or seeing a phychologist does help .. Some good sites to help are .. Dream catchers for the abused ,
www.childmolestationprevention.org , Once paired with healing life because so much easier .. I chose to forgive because it was easier to deal with but If I was faced with him ..
I'm not sure what I'd do..
