I was raped and sold to many men by my husband when I was 8 months pregnant. this was 20 years.I could not cry or make a noise or I would of been beat.This lasted three days.Anyways it was never talked about and my job was to make sure my kids were happy and make sure they had me to raise them. I was good at making sure my children never knew about the different tortures, so they all move ou and my mind decided to knock me out. I never delt with it I always could visualizelike when it happend,I had an out of body experience. I now have remembered the screams that were in my head, the prayes to God begging to live.And now I have the feelings of being raped. It feels like my soul was ripped out of me.Does anybody have any suggestiond on how to deal with this,

You must talk to a trained therapist I feel. Few of us here would be equipped to give you the help you need. Love and peace to you.

I am also trying to do this on my own. I have things come back at me from one of the deepest darkest holes in my memories. I kept shoving it all down just to find out that there is a limit. I think we each have to do what is best for ourselves. Each one of us has different experiences that eventually manifested into a similar problem. Unfortunately that makes it hard to help eachother because each difference we have changes the way we are able to deal with it. I have found that writting helps me a ton. Even just chatting and being honest about things that have happened to me. Deniel is a big problem I have. I'm sure everyone knows the "I'm Fine" when in reality you are just barely hanging on to reality. I would look into what ever resourses you might have. If nothing else, what I think is the most powerful for me is "educate yourself." The more you know about your problems, the better you are at fighting through them. You also might want to look at rape groups. The closer you are to those who have been through something similar, the closer you are to learning/getting support that you need. Good Luck.

Thanks for replying. I was desperate when I wrote that. I am in counseling, a PTSD class just started . I am on a waiting list for 3 months for rape groups. . I lost most my friends when I started trying to get it out. I guess its too much unless you have experienced it
