Hello I'm new here and I don't really know how to start. Well I was sexually abused by my father at a very young age. And we've always had a horrible relationship because I will always remember what he did to me. I felt nothing for him when he passed away last year. But I did forgave him.

I am glad that you forgave him for what he did. I know that wasn't easy. It's sad that this happened to you. One thing to remember, you were a child and he was the guilty one. Often times, the victim has traumatic issues because of what happened. I am here if you need to vent, or whatever.

Also here for yoû... I was sexually abuse a couple times, and physically abused a bunch, and mentally abused the rest...
the biggest one I've struggled to forgive is......
me.

It wasn't my fault, I was just a kid, I didn't deserve any of it....
it believing it at times is very hard. Forgiving the ones that hurt you is very good... but yourself is more important and much much harder..

If you want to talk, drop me a line. Or any number of us on here...

Safe hugs

Welcome to the group although I am very sorry that you have a reason to be here. Please feel free to share as much or as little as you feel safe to share. If you are going to provide details we ask that you please put *TW* (trigger warning) in the subject line so others can decide to read it or not.

I would urge you to work with a therapist or counselor if that is possible for you. Forgiving him for what he did is good but there is still more healing that you will need to do so you can move on with your life. You can heal from what happened and you deserve to heal. If you can't work with a therapist at this time then please keep coming here and talking to us.
