My psych and I were discussing why I thought it was strange that I kept making friends with people who were sexually abused as kids.
My psych told me that numerous experiments had been done for social psychological tests where 30+ people were put in a room to mingle. None of the participants had any knowledge of any other persons history.
Interestingly enough the sexual abuse victims would all end up in one group, depressed people would end up in a group, positive people would group together etc etc.
Makes me wonder that if we (as sexual abuse) victims instinctively recognise other abuse victims is something that an "abuser" can sniff out too in order to recognise us. I say that because it's so common for an abuse victim to end up with an abusive partner.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
