Not necessarily from a sh point of view.
But Torey Hayden's books i've found to help. i don't really know why but they show stuff that goes on in our lives from a professional point of view and they also, to me, show that out there there are some professionals that do care. It's not just a job to her she really does love her kids etc.
It kinda makes me have a small amount of hope.

'A Bright Red Scream' by Marilee Strong: A research piece which includes real life accounts/experiences of people who SH.
Louise L Hay helped me massively here "you can heal your life" was the best book for recover.
I read bright read scream recently as i began to understand more what i used to do and why
