I'm going to seek help for from a councillor or therapist I've been drugged and raped then thrown out the car when I was 17 in my past my dad hung himself when I was 16 I've been taken drugs slept in houses where there were guns everywhere under the pillow to my horror at 17 been punched by men abused by a friend .. is there anyone who is going through anything like this I'm 23 now seeking help from a physiotherapist or Councillor to get rid of the trauma
 
Not currently going through, but have been in some very similar spaces through the years and am still making it through. You're on the right path in seeking help and coming here to share and find support. Glad you're here, sorry for the reasons that made it necessary. Take good care of you and nurture yourself kindly and healthily every chance you get.
 
It's great that you are recognizing that you need help and that you are going to get some therapy. It sounds like it really hadn't been that long since all these traumas happened, go gently with yourself. You must be very strong to have survived this, and getting help now will only make you stronger. You may feel alienated from your age-peers now, but here on this site you are among peers of a different sort. We understand because we've been there ourselves.

Stay strong, and have compassion for yourself. You are not alone. Sending you gentle hugs if you accept (chocolate if not!)
 
I kind of told you guys my information; I've lost a lot of my dignity over the years and need to get it back as well ( I like chocolate and hugs) lost of lot my natural self .

You're right I've lost a lot of my natural behaviour and personality it will be confusing to go back a remember why .

I relate...
Guys I've got a phone call appointment on 27th on Monday I feel a little nervous almost like I want to forget the whole thing kind of feeling , I can already feel like this is going to be difficult. Face the music I guess right :S by the way did anyone feel silly telling someone about their problems ?
 
Yaay for the appt.
Yes..because everything in my life had been minimized or trivialized..I didn't expect any one to believe me or care.
The first time my T said.."that is a horrible thing to do to a child". I just looked at her.
Then I realized she was talking about me!
Go go your best. The real feelings will surface!
Very proud of you!
Keep us updated if you feel like it.
The healing begins!
