Sufferer Trying

[So long ago]

New to this. I'm 62. My family doesn't know. I've totally isolated my self due to that I have girls and I never want to hurt them. I was raped and beat for almost 20 years. They know of the beatings but not the rape. At 19 I was raped by a friend of their fathers while he stood and watched. Then I buried it for 40 years. Then flashbacks became unbelievable or so I thought at the time. Now they a re a daily occurrence. I reach out in the knowledge that I need sharing. We all do. That everyday our lives matter and do not need to live in darkness. But it's a long road back.

I hope you join the forum, as you have so much to gain from others who understand what you've been though and what you are now going through. :tup: No one here judges, we just support each other, and that's a beautiful thing. Plus having the knowledge and support of others "like us" really is priceless in recovering. No matter what you decide, I hope that one day you are able to start to recover. Maybe I'll see you around here. ;):):hug:
