This is my first post, so bear with me. I'm a 50 year old incest & molestation survivor; and yes I was victimized numerous times throughout my lifetime. Over 40 years, I've been dealing wioth this, in and out of counseling. I suffer from PTSD, anxiety, depression and sexual identity issues. Iam divorced. Being a male whohas had sexual encounters with other men since I was ten, leaves me feeling dirty and undesireable. My life is like living on a pendulum, swinging back and forth between being gay and being straight so many times, I am way too confused about the whole thing. I feel like I am supposed tomake a firm decision, one way or the other, and because I can't, that makes me a bad person.Deep inside, though, I like both men and women, and I don't want to give up either, I can't trade one for the other. Does that make me a bad person?! The only solution That I have found is to have sex with no one, date no one. But that is very lonely. Extremely lonely. That's where I am at.

I am not bi but i can sure understand how it can confuse a person.
you may want to take a look at my journal. the stages or recovery are listed there an a poorly written poem about a boy survivor.
be strong and hang in there.
