I could use some help guys. The Editor of the local newspaper has agreed to let me have space to write an article. End the Silence - Begin the Healing,Recovering from male childhood sexual abuse.
My abuse was at the age of 11 and I told on the Priest a few weeks after he raped me. At that time 1961, the church did nolthing,told me that they believed Father R and not me. So I have alse had this with me in my inner mind. I broke the silence again in May and this time the Archdiocese said that they believed me. They have been paying for my T and now have agreed to my requess that they reach out to the other victims.
There will be an community wide meeting to deal with the sexual abuse issues. The Archdiocese will open up their resources to all not just those abused by the Priests. I want to get the victims thinking about healing for weeks before this meeting, thats what the article is all about.
I would like your ideas on what to put into this article. I look at 3 or 4 parts to this, the childhood effects , the man hiding in the silence, and the healing . I know nolthing about PTSD or flashbacks. I have just began my healing so I need ideas about this also.
I look forward to hearing from you all.
Thank Muldoon
