Surviving Ophelia: Mothers Share Their Wisdom in Navigating the Tumultuous Teenage Years Paperback - 2002
by Cheryl Dellasega
Raising a teenage girl can be frightening and overwhelming for the most important female figure in her life--her mother. To provide the community that these women so desperately crave as well as guidance, solace, inspiration, and hope, Dellasega has written a book of profound wisdom and compassion.
From the publisher
First line
"Is Ellen losing weight?"
From the jacket flap
Why are the teen years fraught with crisis for so many girls? Why do so many mother-daughter relationships deteriorate drastically at this time? When her own teenage daughter began to spiral out of control, therapist Cheryl Dellasega, Ph.D., launched a nationwide search to find answers-- and hope. In this inspiring, compassionate book, Dellasega shares the strength and the wisdom of mothers who have seen their daughters through the tumult of adolescence.
Drawing on the experiences of scores of mothers and daughters, Dellasega takes a hard look at the lives of girls in crisis--once happy, carefree children who are now struggling with eating disorders, unplanned pregnancies, substance abuse, and severe mental problems. These are stories of girls on the edge, and mothers who are trying everything to save them. Yet even in the most desperate situations, Dellasega hears the same clear message: the key to survival is the support and the understanding of others going through the same thing.
"Surviving Ophelia is a book that provides the community that mothers of troubled teenage girls need more than anything. Powerful and heartfelt, this book captures both the pain and the strength of mothers who are living with the daily challenge of raising teenage daughters today.
