ive just joined this site as a way of moving forward. I feel like i've come to a good place in my life right now. Im leaving home to move in with my boyfriend in the house he has bought for us, I've been accepted into the university i wanted to go to and i feel like life should be fantastic but im being held back by the things that have happened in the past.
I want to be able to deal with them and put them behind me so i can get on with the rest of my life. But im scared to tackle what happened and i think i need a friend who can understand and help me and who i can help in return.
Please reply if you want to talk :)

Hi there, I have jsut started using this site and noticed that you are looking for someone to talk to to. I was abused as a child from the age of 9 until i was nearly 18 by my mum's brother. I was also raped in 2000 whilst on holiday. I am now 30 yrs old and have been through many difficult times in my life. I decided in 2008 that my abuser had to pay for what he had put me through. In 2004 i was diagnosed as suffering from PTSD, OCD, Agoraphobia and Anxiety. I tried so many times to sweep it under the carpet but could not no more after i gave birth to my little boy i became extremely protective of my son and i only trusted my Mum and Dad to look after him as i knew that they would never hurt him, because they never hurt me. on 22nd June 2010 my abuser was sentenced to 3 years in prison and is now on the sx offender's register. I am starting to re-build my life and deal with what happened by getting professional help from psychologist.
