Hello to all,
I had my first therapy session today.I am so afraid of what lies ahead,yet to turn back now is not an option.I was sexual abused when I was 6 years old,He told me that if I said anything he would hurt my parents.29 years, and one hell of a messed up life later, I finally have the courage to face the demons that have been my captives all these years.NEVER again will I hide behind the mask of shame,Never will I allow someone else to steal my hope,life,dreams.For the first time in 29 years I have hope,and no one will ever take that from me again.I pray that all who have been harmed will 0neday get to the place I found today.
 
In Pain - it's a very brave step to start therapy and I wish you every success with the process.

Sometimes you may find it to be a very tough process, but stick with it - you will feel the benefit even if sometimes you think you can't. Our demons can be defeated.

Best wishes ...Rik

Good to here you so upbeat.

You got to start somewhere and today is always better than tomorrow. Remember that it's alright that you didn't start therapy earlier. For whatever reason sometimes people just aren't ready. My biggest reason was that I never looked at it as abuse until someone pointed it out to me.

All our situations are unique, but we all have something in common. Good luck on your therapy. Mine started about 6 weeks ago and it's getting better and better. I've gone almost four days without a panic/anxiety attack. I've been used to having 3 to 4 per day for over a year. I've done it without meds, but I wished I would've had them from the start.

Good luck and come back often.

Take it easy.

how easy it would be to take your 'name' and say "been there, done that".
We have all felt pain, and still feel some, everyone one of us here. But you'r pain is individual to you.

You've done just about the braves thing anyone can ever do today - you sought help. And that's a sign of great strength, not weakness. The abusers are the weaklings, we're not.

So stick around here, work at the therapy and take support and help from wherever you can find it, together we can ease your pain.

We are all so very proud of you (and maybe a bit jealous, too :p )

You hang in there and keep moving forward!!!!!!!

PEACE and God Bless!

In Pain,

You definitely have the sound of someone who knows what he wants and is going to get it. Good for you. Keep that hope, never turn back, and if you slip, one of us can give you a hand getting back up. There are a lot of strong hands here that have lifted me when I needed it.

Thanks,

Joe
 
Welcome,

How about "Beginning to shed the pain" or "healing" as a nick. You have started healing and shedding the pain.

Sorry that this shit fell upon you. I am glad that you are addressing it. That your not going to let it keep you down anymore.

Take care,
Bill
 
WElcome. It's great to hear that you have decided to take control over your life.
 
In Pain:
Thank you for your post. That was a powerful experience you shared. I relate to the fear and determination you express about what lies ahead. I just joined this board a few days ago and I'm glad you're here too.
 
Thank all of you for your kind words.It fills my heart with joy and my eyes with tears to know I'm not alone on this journey.I once was blinded by fear,yesterday I saw clearly for the first time in years, and I liked what I saw!!!!!
 
in pain,
welcome and i am so glad for you, i just started here too. i have no control over when it will be "better" but i am looking forward to it for you, myself, and all of our other abused brothers.

i hid it too- for 31 years, what a mess and ride it has been. but i am alive, safe, and working on it too right along with you.
