Hey folks!
I trust you are all well, and if not I surely hope comfort will be brought to you! I figured it would be a good idea to seek out conversation in order to help facilitate my continued growth through trauma. A little about me is as follows: I'm in my early (or mid) twenties ;). I have a lovely wife and two beautiful children. I was raped at least once as a child, but I suspect it was a routine occurrence. My good childhood friend was raped with me and from what I can remember my rapist had us stimulate each other while he was taking turns having intercourse with the both of us. I think I was about four years old at the time of my first trauma.
I don't think these violations lasted longer than a year or so, but I suspect I was violated multiple times with my friend. Following these experiences, my friend and I began to have sexual experiences with each other without our rapist. This was probably from ages 5 to 6. He at one time coerced me to perform oral sex on him and to be reciprocated, can you believe it, my friend raped me when he was six years old, now that is something!
I molested my 4 or 5-year-old cousin when I was 6. (Parents: keep a very close eye on your children! I would recommend NEVER letting your child sleepover anywhere!)
Anyway, I'm mostly here to engage like-minded and experienced people in conversation and perhaps exchange insights with one another. I have a specific interest in EMDR and bodywork therapy, simply because this is where I have been able to unlock the majority of my traumatic memories. I am naturally very depressive and have struggled with suicidal ideation since about sixth grade. CPTSD is muh life! Hahahaha!
To you be plenteous redemption and grace!
