The feed back has been so real and some hard to hear but even then my beliefs are being challenged but it's hard I've believed for so long that these things are normal I built these understanding to help me understand I think I've always know it was wrong it hurt and I was made to be ashamed I hear that mothers shouldn't let men do the things they do it's against the law and the thought of any other person made to do the things I have to is upsetting but I've always felt that I deserved it I could try to explain and it made sense but to believe different tares down those walls and leaves me confused it brings a whole nother set of emotions and it's dark and my way I knew explained it and I was able to except it my body and the degrading and fear of dieing was easier to except now I try to fight and it makes things worse plus I become a threat in another way in truth it cept me in line and I have to truly be careful to except these new things could be dangerous and I'm afraid it may I don't know it's all so confusing and overwhelming to some I just be crazy but it's how I have servieved and maybe I'm afraid to hate I don't know I see things in one way but whatvi know and feel and experience I don't know thank you all for the feed back

Upon his departure, he remarked, "I am in many people’s pockets; no one will believe you." Have you ever grappled with the silence that follows sexual assault, where the perceived impossibility of being believed necessitates self-censorship?
Maybe you need time to sift and digest it all.
You have received a lot of information since you joined DS and I agree with donnawanda that it may make sense if you take a little time to sift through it all and digest it. But we are always here to help you through and support you - an answer any questions you may have.
it took a really long time for me to realize that my SO didn't have any ulterior motives. that he was actually being kind to me bcuz he believed i deserved kindness, but i was confused -- i kept waiting for that switch to go off n the demands to start, but they didn't.
it takes time n patience, not only with others, but also with yourself. take time to feel what you're feeling n process it.
for a long time, i kept going back n forth -- between the "abused" mind n the "rational" mind. keep your head up n don't stop trying.
