So I have been searching for the statue of limitations of reporting my sexual abuse which occured in Pennsylvania. I came acrossed this site and decided to see what's in here. From the subjects I see I feel the knifes being wielded with the force of the incidences(sp).

So i'm in my thirties, i started comprehending my memories when i was 25/6. I confronted my step dad regarding this shortly after this the anxiety with still being in house was really going to lead me to terminating his life. His excuse was " I was doing some really f* up s* then". No sorry, No apology either. I asked him did you think I wouldn't figure it out. He said nothing. I lived with extreme rage for quit some time, I still have a very short fuse. I'm afraid if someone pushes me the wrong way that all that anger and rage is going to cause some serious harm.

Other problems consist of being bipolar, sever anxiety and trust issues. I have not been very successful in relationships. My focus tend to be tied more to sex and not the relationship. And when my relationships ends. I cry like the world is coming to an end and that someone i truly trusted is abondaning me.

I'm currently seeing a therapist and taking meds for depression and such. Though I still have probably the lowest self esteem, and self image of myself. I've been through utter hell.

Short Biography:

With mother 5 to 6 years after birth
Step-dad wins custody me and my brothers stay with him.
He can't handle us after endless physical and sexual abuse. He sends us back to my Mom's house. She can't handle us either she beats the living crap out of us for 3 years then Child Protective Services takes us away. Now in Foster Care till 18 I bounced around to almost 30 homes. Went to 3 junior highs, and 4 high schools. A family member attempts to help me in my Senior year not understanding relationships and stuff I cannot be controled. I run away to Canada. I ran out of money and got caught for a stolen car coming back into the US. The police let me out of jail on ROR. My Uncle said he wanted nothing to do with me. So I goto my Step-Dads to try and get into the Navy. Stuff is a little weird, he is gay and I thought it was in regards to that and all the gay people coming around, but I manage. Now I join the Navy I join a elite unit in the Navy and fail to hold it together mentaly after proposing to another shipmate. I attempt suicide and fail. I eventually meet some misfits on a ship after the elite unit dismisses me. Joined up with these clowns I procede to do drugs as if they were candy. I was kicked out of the Navy for failing a drug test. One of the misfits in our group was my best friend, after both being kicked out of the Navy we resume are partying and drug use out in the Midwest which was his hometown. Soon after arriving he's old friend have a place for him and nadda for me. I know no one. I manage with a girl I met, that relationship goes to hell and I attempt suicide again. I must of come close cause I got seriously scared from seeing the weirdest stuff on earth. She takes me to the hospital they pump me fool of charcoal. Hours later I managed to remember her number after being mentaly washed. So I manage to pull my self together and hold a fast food job. This was a dead end place here in the Midwest. I needed out. So I proceded to call my step dad the molester to help me out. After moving there their was some serious anxiety. Shortly after that I confronted him as stated above. Thoughts of executino ran through my head for some time after that. I continuely tried to force a serious confrontation though was a bit scared he being a vietnam vet and all. He kicked me out not wanting to be reminded of the incident I assume, so I left and stayed with a girlfriends gay friends. Another weird situation that I had to manage to find myself. During this time I bounced from job to job trying to make up the ladder of life. I eventually get a break as a tech support rep for a ISP. I manage that well, though I was a very angry, vengeful, hateful person. I had no relationships during this time. I attached myself to a computer and that was it. After being there for awhile i made it to the tech world and bounced a bit from there. Now I'm a Hardware Engineer making more cash than most married couples. Though my life still is fresh with all that pain. Relationships end and I contemplate suicide and cry myself away over and over. But tonight my buddy told me he has had someone molest him also and we began to connected on all of these weird issues the abuse brings. So I'm not sure where I'm at in this game but I would like to have a family and move on from all of this. Sorry for the book but maybe this will help someone else.

So last night I dumped a bit here. Today I've been working on placing my rage and anger and things I feel that violate me in the proper place. I think i've done pretty good, it has been exhausting. I've been greatly distracted from my work due to the processing of these thoughts. I'm sure with practice it will be easier I hope. I thing without closure I will continue to be very fustrated though. Well I'm trudging through the mud of and fighting the demons as I try to make progress. Surely my life will not alwasy consist of this monotany? Well back to the battle at hand.
 
Take your time man, it happens at its own pace, so keep that in mind. If you try to rush things through you will only find frustration.

Keep at it, we're rooting for you!
 
Preparing for Battle:

i'm seriously sick of this controlling my life. i look in the rear view mirror and see the destruction this has caused.

So I am preparing for battle. I have downloaded and begun using a Brainstorming application to jot down my life. And the bullshit that goes on in my head. Along with all my relationships and sexual partners that i've had and a summary of what I can remember regarding them. All that and the emails and post and communica that has transpired recently. Though I need assurance when I speak to my therapist that I will not be reported to the authorities. I haven't molested any kids or murdered anyone. So i assume everything else is ok, or I'll soon findout. I've attained some great support from some friends a relative that has shared that she has experienced the same type of abuse and has recovered. plus this forum and the internet as a resource. I may sound cocky but this is me, the guy who controls the fucking ship not the demons that run and control me. And thier D-day is coming. ALL of them will be thrown on the shrinks desk and dissected and destroyed. I'm a through with this shit. the road is full of some dark enemies that I may not be aware of but I'm making the battle plan that will carry me through those tough times now. It's late I need to settle in and recall more. until the next phase is complete .. just keep fighting.
 
new meds delivered.


Well I can say is i'm in control. Only vague things are popping in and changing my esteem levels. The are easily washed out or distracted. where'as on my previous med that would consume for some tim. Feeling good is all i hve to say. I feel a bit serious overload in a way and being like this at work might be strange we'lll see. But the fight has began. Mainly my motivation has risen a bit. i think i'm out of the depression but not for from it. Sunday should be an interesteing day. Until then have fun in it as it comes to you.

Man I have a lot of respect for you. It takes a Man to be able to step up to our plate and devise a game plan. I know how you feel. I know what kinda chaos this shit has done with my life. I am also in my 30's and I am trying to put this crap behind me. Its time for Me to start living again and not let our perps continue to control us. Good Luck man.
 
Hi Kishono

I'm still needing to learn this myself. Damn guy, in so many ways you and I are way too much alike.


Shhhhhhh...

Relax...

In the illusion of time called a lifespan, take a moment and enjoy being here. All the horrible, unconscionable things that have occured can be worked on. But do take a moment to find something to enjoy about being alive at this very moment too. You deserve to give at least as much attention to aknowledging some of the wonderous things that I'm sure are also your life and yours alone.

I'm so very much like you it's scary. And please believe me when I say (No offense to anyone intended), I'm not into that New Agey stuff.

Relax... It's only magic. :)
 
This is an aweful lot to have to handle at once. I'm wishing you strength and courage; you've obviously got it in spades.

Best,
Scotty
