Hi Lawrence
I have only joined the forum today, and have found reading the entries most interesting. In particular yours. Unfortunately I am not particularly informed with regard to your wife's condition, but feel inclined to explore deeper the issues you have raised. Also, most evident was your frustration in your text, and you (and your wife) do appear to have been struggling to manage the NES, and in your quest to identify research in this area in relation to sexual abuse. Although i'm unable to offer much at this current time for you and your wife, I shall endeavour to explore this area too, consulting work colleagues (In Psychiatry), and Health Psychology (MSc) tutors etc via current studies.
wishing you both well, karen
