About the Book
BASTA is a book born from the need to help people who have suffered abuse and sexual exploitation find a path to healing, strength, and transformation.
In this second edition, fully revised and expanded, Thais Rocha-Münstermann shares not only her journey of overcoming, but also practical tools, technical knowledge, and profound reflections for those who wish to leave the victim position and take ownership of their own story.
The book is not only for survivors, but also for everyone who wants to become agents of social transformation, working to combat abuse and sexual exploitation, whether through awareness, support, or practical actions in their communities.
With accessible, sensitive, and well-grounded language, BASTA offers hope, clarity, and direction for those seeking to reframe their experiences and for those who wish to actively contribute to a safer, more humane, and just world.

Testimonials
"Silence never protects the victim, it always protects the abuser. Looking away or denying the problem doesn't solve it. That's why we need to shed light on this issue, because only with information and knowledge will our children be truly protected. This is the purpose of this book, which presents, in a very courageous way, the accounts of survivors."
Paula Mary
Federal Police Delegate and Head of the Cybercrime Repression Group of the Federal Police in Rio de Janeiro
"In 'Basta! Leaving the victim position', the author brings to light what sexual abuse really is (which doesn't only happen in cases of rape, as many still mistakenly think) while taking the discussion deeper, covering topics such as pornography, masturbation, sexual exploitation, and even human trafficking. Yes, we need to treat the evil at its root."
FabÃola Melo
Writer and Influencer
"This book is of extreme importance, being so relevant for the times we live in today. It will open your eyes to a dark reality. A book for you who seeks healing, or who has a flame in your heart crying out for justice. There is a war before us that needs to be won. For this, we need to be aware of what sexual abuse is and how to combat this evil."
