Unplanned Disclosure to my mom

Unplanned Disclosure to my mom
O

onlyakid

Well its happened, she knows now. I still feel a little wierd that she does. I was supposed to start taking college courses but I couldn't get myself to go in, I came home (I still live with her) and told her a story on why the class was canceled, she didn't believe me. So eventually I had to tell her that I didn't go and why I didn't go.

She wasn't shocked to here that I had been abused she noticed that something was wrong at the time but she was shocked to find out it was my brother.

She's coming to my session with my T on Tuesday. One thing I did find out is that she thought it happened when I went to Boy Scout Camp. I do remember not wanting to shower but I don't remember if I did or I didn't. I'm not sure what happened. Maybe something did I happen I don't remember.

Anyway, I'm still kinda shocked at having told my mother. I guess this is the beginning of a new time in my life. I'm confused and scared

Jason,

You will be ok. Now both of you may have a lot of anger at your brother, but that's ok.

It was an unplanned disclosure to my wife that got me started. I don't know how it happens, but I know that it happens.

Please remember, you will be ok. You have a lot of people who will be here for you.

This is the beginning of something new, and it will turn out to be something good for you.

Jason, as hard as this is, I think you will feel that your heart is a lot lighter.

Just for that, Dinner in SLC airport will be my treat!
 
Hey Jason... I know how strange it feels right now. I still can't get used to the idea that people know. I am really proud of you for talking to her... and glad that she is receptive to going to therapy with you.

We're here if you need us.
 
Thank you all for being there for me, I'm feeling alot better now. Its still wierd that it isn't a secret anymore, it has been for 13-14 years. I hoping that this will help me get back on my feet again.
 
Jason, your feelings can be like a yo-yo after disclosing. We feel releif and then embarassed and then vulnerable and then relieved etc. etc.

It helps to post here and get support from many guys who have had a similar situation.
