Hey

[PhilUK]

I'm not sure how to start this.

I've been registered a couple of weeks now, but haven't said much.

I'm 36 and was sexually abused by my uncle from the age of 4 until 10. During this time there was other men involved and other boys too. I'm sure pictures were taken, but I don't have any proof of it.

Last year I had a bit of a break down and it all came out, the police got involved and they started to look in to it, but then quickly decided to drop the case.

Now I feel a bit lost. I'm pleased I've found this page though, I now don't feel as alone as I did.

Welcome PhilUK, There's a lot to figure out and things can be overwhelming sometimes. Like traveler said, find your pace. Each discovery of what this has meant to us leads to the layers of our lives. Looking into them will need tools. Especially tools to stay grounded. Have you learned that yet? My therapist taught me, and then I discovered some of the same things discussed around MS here and on the Main Page of MS.

On MS's "For Survivors" You'll find resources and lots of things. Also many of the Forums themselves have links like on the forum "Male Survivor" You'll find that post to "Familiarize" yourself.

I hope that stuff helps you learn more? Though looking to be good to yourself as you discover is very important.

See you around.
