I've never been apart of anything like this, and I've never admitted to what happened to me to anyone other than my family. I'm 19 years old. Barely an adult. I was abused at 14 by a family friend. I can't bring myself to type all the details yet. I just, am overwhelmed lately with anger and anxiety and I think talking to someone who understands would help. Please, I don't know what else to do. Thank you.
Know that it in no way your fault. Find some one to talk to counseling helps. What you do about it is up to you and what you can handle. Though I should tell you I was sexually abused by my step father for years. I ran away when I was 15 I found out when I was 19 that he had left my mom shortly after and was arrested for abusing an 7 and 8 year old. I carry that guilt with me.
i was the same way but i did not open up to anyone i was sexually abused by my cousin for years at a very young age and i was so scared to tell anyone what had happend to me i have really bad anxiety and i go to a therpist and she really helps i understand what your going thro and it is hard i know i am still trying to deal it is scary and i am here to talk to
Just came to this sight and saw people with similar tales. Want you to know i need to feel not alone, and that's what it does, feel alone and at fault. Been angry for a long time and been fighting feeling fault but I cannot shake the ghosts. I'm nearly fifty and spent nearly all my life in prison or breaking the law, hasn't helped or changed a thing. A while ago the only person who ever helped died and all the good work they started to help me see in myself and my life feels as if it died with them. Sorry if I ramble but I don't share often or tell people I'm afraid. Been afraid since I was four and I'm tired. Can't destroy myself any longer. Just thanks for being there and me finally finding people who might understand.
