Hug
I am doing well today- the two older boys went back to school today, so I am enjoying the time with the 3 and 1 year old. I know what you mean about the grocery store- I alway felt naked there too for some reason. I wonder why that is- you know my counsellor gave me an exercise that helped me see there was no need to ask forgiveness from God- because I dealt with a lot of guilt (feeling it was all my fault). She had me look up all the scriptures about how God feels about us- his people... You know what I discovered- He LOOOOOOOOOves us! It took me about 2 weeks to look it all up and then he had me write a letter to myself as if I was God writing a letter to me about what happened. It was an amazing exercise- took forever but amazing none the least-try it- I bet the thought of those who are against you will feel less and less and they will turn to thoughts of just feeling sorry for them because they can not see past the end of their small hearts and noses : )
Love you friend! -

Thank you. Maybe I will talk with you about it. I hardly talk to my bf about it, who is the person I talk about the past abuse with, but I don't want to think about the most recent stuff. Once I feel like I can, I'll start talking about it, and you may be one of the ones I turn to.

I'm not sure I'm ready to talk about it, yet. I'm emotionally numb, but the numbness is starting to fade. I don't want it to fade, I want it to stay and make everything okay. I don't want to report it, I can't handle people finding out about it. And I don't want a pelvic exam. I have to go back in two weeks, Mom will make me. Mom will be the only one going with me, everyone else is in school. And she likes him hurting me.

Support Groups
Close Rape
I was raped nearly five years ago. The person who raped me was my older cousin. I was twenty three at the time and had a five month old baby. The cousin is 7 years older. His girlfriend was in room next door & listened, I know as she apologised for his actions. It has devastated my life. I battle with it daily. I went to the police before Christmas last year, I had kept my clothes from that night sealed in a bag. They are away for DNA test & I wait to see if it will go to court or not.
Treatments
- Rape Counseling Somewhat Helpful
- I USED TO CONSIDER THE NIGHT I WAS RAPED AS THE NIGHT I DIED. I REALISE NOW THAT I DIDNT DIE AND REFUSE TO ALLOW HIM TO TAKE ANYTHING MORE OF MY LIFE FROM ME.
Close Sexual Abuse
I was sexually abused form the age of 7 til my early teens by a cousin. I was then raped by the same man five years ago. This made the memories come back & I started having flashbacks.... they come thick & fast some days. My childhood was stolen, I have issues in relationships & am paranoid with folk around my kids Sometimes I think it's getting easier but realise it's just me putting a "face" on it all again. My family, apart from my parents, have been no support & call me a whore.
Treatments
- Abuse Counseling Working / Worked
- It was one and is one of the hardest things. Admitting it took place & happened to me was hard. I am still sticking it out & think it has helped me.
