    Completely Snapped Last Night - Feeling So Lost.

    Firstly, Id be looking for a more appropriate outlet for the anger before it gets to the point of hitting someone. It is very important that it never happens again.

    Ptsd And Filing Civil Suit

    Maybe there should be an international 'Report your rape day'. Given the number of rapes that go unreported, legal systems would be flooded with hundreds of thousands of claims to sort through. Whether they had a good case or not, rape victims could stand together instead of trying to survive in...

    Relationship My Wife's Healing

    When I began processing my trauma all of the feelings associated with it came flooding back. I was very much living in that time again. I was constantly being triggered by anything that vaguely reminded me of the abuse. It did get worse and eventually after a lot of time and therapy it got...

    Relationship Haven't Talked To Him In A Few Days

    You might not have PTSD or clinical depression but that doesn't mean your feelings are any less important than his. By the sounds of it you could use a little care at the monent too. I'm coming to realize that supporters do it really tough and it makes me question how I've treated my own partner...

    Male Child Sexual Abuse Survivors: What Was Sex For You Like?

    I agree that gender plays little part and that individuial response is subjective. BTW true feminism is about Men and Women having equal rights and opportunities. No man hating.

    Been Given An Exit Date

    A friend of mine hosts wwoofers on her farm. It is an excellent program. Free food and accommodation In exchange for help around the farm. It is regulated through an agency so you have that extra layer of protection. I've been in homeless too. I remember the bottomless pit of emptiness and...

    Should I Tell My Partner I Was Abused?

    Solara you make some excellent points. I think my next step is actually going to be looking at how I value myself. Scout86 I really don't understand how love and sex can be the same thing. I express and experience love in many ways, but I do not associate it with sex at all. I realise this is...

    Rule Of Thumb

    I have heard something along the lines of "rule of thumb" referring to an old law that a husband could beat his wife with a piece of wood provided it was no thicker than the width of his thumb. Not sure how much truth there is to it. I've mainly heard Anthony's definition. Next time I'm in the...

    Flashbacks That Create A Comorbid Reaction

    Hmm I don't know about this but I am trying to figure out what is triggering me to disassociate so often at the moment. I've been paying close attention and keeping a diary. Since then I'm starting to notice some patterns which weren't otherwise obvious to me. Would it be helpful for you to keep...

    Why Didn't I Say No? Need To Share.

    That is so creepy! You did the right thing in following your instincts and not saying 'no'. I think it was the best thing to keep you safe at the time. You have handled the whole situation very well. I'm glad that the company are going taking this very seriously. If he was released on a...
