Or go home and pray that, in the morning, it would be only a nightmare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the years that followed, Eden was met with disbelief by strangers, friends, and the authorities, often as a result of stigma towards her non-monogamy, sex positivity, and bisexuality. Societal conditioning of acceptable female sexuality silenced her to a point of despair, leading to addiction and even attempted suicide. It was through the act of writing that she began to heal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCrying Wolf\u003c\/em\u003e is a gripping memoir that shares the raw path to recovery after violence and spotlights the ways survivors are too often demonized or ignored when they belong to marginalised communities.
