im confused, i spent time with a detective today making a statement about my abuse which happened over 20 years ago, and have come home feeling somehow like it was patly my fault because i didnt try hard enough to fight him off...i was 11 at the time and living with my abuser...the abuse started and continued for months and i was so scared all of the time, to scared to protest alot as to not wanting this to happen.i am wondering now, if i had been more assertive about how i felt, would it really have made any difference. i believe my abuser knew how unhappy his actions made me feel and i find it hard to imagine he didnt see my fear.
why am i feeling like this? i know how it felt to be trapped with him day in and day out, i just wasnt able to tell anyone what was happening.
i just feel bad right now and dont understand why i feel this way.
thanks for listening...is this normal for a surviver of abuse to feel like i do after so long.

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...
Yeah, it's typical. Unfortunately. It's weird how un-logical it is, and yet... Well, anyway, it most certainly wasn't your fault in the slightest way. As a child, the situation is quite clear. You are dependent on adults to take care of you and we all make calcuations for our survival when we are children. When thinking about it from an adult perspective, you assume your adult self and all the options that are open to you. You didn't have those as a child. You had no credit cards or driver's license or even legal rights. So, now, after 20 years you are voicing the voice that couldn't have been heard before. I think that's a good step. It's not ideal, but it's better than nothing.
thank you again.
