Overview

Coercive control and narcissistic abuse aren't ""communication problems."" They are psychological torture - a system of power designed to dismantle you piece by piece, by someone who claims to love you. It doesn't kick down the door screaming. It brings you flowers. It says, ""I'm just trying to take care of you."" Before you know it, the flowers are wilted, the door is locked from the outside, and you can't remember the last time you made a choice that wasn't pre-approved. From the outside, everyone sees devotion. From the inside, it's demolition. ENOUGH: What Coercive Control Steals. What Recovery Makes Possible is a survival guide for recovery from coercive control and narcissistic abuse, written by trauma-informed counsellor Geoffrey Clow, with Georgie Bailey (née Booker), whose forty-year story of survival forms the heart of the book. Therapy waitlists are long. Specialists are rare. Most survivors are told to ""work on communication"" with their abuser. Enough bridges that gap, offering clarity, validation, and practical tools that work even when you're still shaking. Inside this guide: The exact patterns of manipulation, so you can finally see what happened Practical steps to reclaim your reality, your choices, and your sense of self Tools to dismantle self-blame and recognise the truth A path back to trusting your own intuition Permission to stop explaining yourself and start recovering Written in the same words you've searched at 3 a.m. with shaking hands. A book you'll return to again and again as you rebuild. Not theory. Not wellness slogans. Just the truth of what happened, and how to take yourself back. Recovery isn't about going back to who you were. It's about becoming who they never let you be. At some point, you stop excusing. You stop minimising. You stop believing the lies. You finally say the word that should have ended it the first time someone tried to erase you. Enough.

Reviews

""Magnificent, taut, sensory, and quietly electrifying. It captures the bodily truth of intuition under coercive control with the precision of lived experience."" - Trauma recovery specialist and survivor ""Extraordinary. Every chapter balances grief, compassion, and psychological clarity with unflinching honesty. It is devastating and deeply kind all at once."" - Reviewer, trauma-informed literature ""What makes this book so powerful is that it trusts the survivor's observations. It does not hedge or soften; it speaks with the declarative certainty survivors need to rebuild self-trust."" - Survivor reader, coercive control ""These pages will stay with readers for a long time, the ones they will return to whenever someone tells them they are overreacting."" - Reader, domestic-abuse recovery ""Exceptionally precise and emotionally intelligent. It brings final clarity to what so many have lived: that no amount of self-correction could have changed them."" - Psychologist specialising in trauma recovery ""A masterwork of liberating survivors from self-blame. Each chapter dismantles a layer of internalised responsibility until what remains is truth and freedom."" - Counsellor, coercive-control education ""Lucid, factual, and searingly empathic without sentimentality. It ends not in vengeance but in truth, the distilled moral heart of Enough"" - Reviewer, contemporary nonfiction ""Gentle, beautifully written, and anchored in somatic truth. Every section honours the body's pace; it never rushes the reader toward resolution, and that is precisely its power."" - Reader, complex-trauma recovery ""Turns ambivalence into evidence of recovery. The missing does not mean failure; it means the trauma bond was real and the nervous system is recalibrating. Permission without shame."" - Survivor advocate ""Quietly revolutionary. It transforms what the world calls damage into recognised mastery, and what survivors internalise as weakness into strength."" - Advocate, domestic-violence prevention
