Hello all,
I am new to this site, finding it through a support group I am involved with. I have been trying to recover for the past 4 years, it is hard. I experienced sexual and physical abuse. I was sexually abused by my best friends father
 
John,

Thanks for posting this and welcome to the site. There is a lot to share here and you raise so many issues.

One thing that I would like to say right away, since you express so many emotions, is that we have to be honest with ourselves about our feelings and go from there. It's complicated and in most cases it's a good idea to be working with a T. But our feelings are ours and we have to own them and work on them. They may be misleading feelings, but that's where we have to start.

Much love,
Larry
 
Long Haul, I feel what you are saying. Larry is right about the T, they can guide you through this mess. Glad you are here, and I hope you find this place helpful, I know I do. I wish I could give you more advise but at this time in your life, I thing the best thing to do is to seek the help of a professional. If you do not have the money or time or the want to do so just know that you are not alone in all of this, millions suffer as you have, the feeling you have are not strange or wierd, it is normal after abuse.

Keep posting,
 
John,

I have found this site to become very helpful. I can undestand some if not most of the pain your going through. My relationships whenever I have them also have been harmful. I've also had thoughts like the ones you've had of getting even by bitting it off. I think you have a lot of courage coming here, and that make you a strong person.
