Undiagnosed Hi, Child Sexual Abuse - Recent Onset Of Memories

[NatRS]

Hello,

I was sexually abused as a child, but just started to realize it about six months ago. The past month or two have been fairly awful. I have frequent flashbacks and memories; I don't sleep very well ever due to bad dreams.

I'm in a position right now where I cannot get financial coverage for any mental health support. I'm so depressed I have difficulty even getting out of bed, and find myself in such a hopeless place I'm not sure why I'm even here. I'm so stuck, and keep digging myself deeper. I just don't know what to do to make it stop - and I have a lot of trouble finding the energy to do so. I know the worst thing to do is to isolate yourself, but I've been so successful in doing so.

I'm not sure what I'm looking for here, but I assume it can't hurt. I want to try and get better.

Thanks for reading.

Welcome to the forum,

Im sure you will find it very useful. It is a great place to come to just to talk, to share opinions or offer and receive support :).

I hear what you're saying about just realising about abuse well after it has happened and I can relate to that.

I am really sorry to hear that you are going through a rough patch right now but you are obviously at a positive stage because you have chosen to join the forum and this is a safe place. You are at the start of a positive journey and you are not alone :).
