Hey I finally have the courage to introduce myself. I am John from Upstate NY, married early 50’s. I was abused by a group of teenage boys who were my friends brother & his friends. This happened like 49 years ago. I was made to do things that were not appropriate for any young boy to do. I never told anyone until last year.
My nephews were abused by their uncle. He’s been convicted & is currently in a federal prison for 30 years. I was triggered by this all coming to light. I was a strong supporter of them & their mom my sister. While attending court etc it brought my abuse all back to me. I ended up seeking counseling online telemed. That was ok but I desperately needed more. I was at work and a coworker suggested that I reach out to her husband’s psychologist. I did. I seen him & he’s been amazing. Took over my meds and I’m much more comfortable now. I also do telemed every week w my counselor.
