In need of help and guidance

Hello all,
My name is Jordan. I have been a member of this community before, but have not engaged in discussion for a long time and had to create a new account.
Recently I have returned to intensive outpatient cognitive behavioral therapy for my issues stemming from my experience of being sexually assaulted and molested as a child. I also am working on dealing with post traumatic stress from combat in Iraq.
The reason why I am reaching out to this community again is because of severe depression and anxiety.
I currently work in social services with children and families, and also in behavioral health advocacy. I need to be strong for those who rely on me for guidance and strength, and yet I am having allot of trouble with my own issues. I am happily married to a wonderful man for several years, he is my main support, but he can't help me with everything that I have going on.
As a child I was victimized by my parents, pediatricians, scout leaders, and many others who found me to be an easy target for the fulfillment of their own desires.
I'm struggling with this greatly, and in reality the only reason I keep on living is because of my husband and to be there for all of those who needed my professional help and guidance. I am on the verge of ending it all. I just need friends in the community who understand what I am going through and won't judge me it make assumptions about things they have no clue about.
I really need to just have people who understand what this life is like and are willing to encourage me to go on.
Take care, and stay safe friends.
