Well I'm really glad this forum is here, ----- nice new idea guys.
I just wanted to ask one question that is really getting on my whick, did anyone have a similar experience to me?
I I was not abused by parents, or by an adult. I was virtually gang raped and riddiculed by a bunch of girls my own age or slightly older 12-15 during my time at secondary school. Stuff included having my trousers pulled down, being forced to touch others while having my face spat in, a lot of physical violence (though that happened from boys as well), significant verbal abuse someone attempting to stuff a tampon in my mouth etc. ----- sorry, can't continue with the catalogue.
I've only thus far come across one person in a similar position to me, ie, abused by a bunch of essentially strangers in acts of fairly extreme school bullying. While everyone's experience is obviously different, even among male survivers I do sometimes feel a bit alone with this.
Afterall, I didn't exactly know my abusers, and while I'm now recognizing there was a bit more interacting betwene us than just on a level of strangers, ----- one of the worst things I remember was one of my female abusers asking me if I liked her? while attempting to strip off my shirrt, this was certainly a long way from it being a family member or adult i actually knew, ---- pluss, as I've said, there were multiple people involved, at least three, sometimes as many as 6.
I just wondered if anyone else has experienced anything remotely similar.
