You are not alone....

Quote From: peaches_8

im so discouraged lately 

its hard to be specific but i really have very few people who are there for me. 

Keep your head held high Peaches! You are not alone. There are a lot of men and women who are here for you. (don't forget the one man above you). You will have days that seem almost impossible. But pull yourself up out of bed and tell yourself that "I'm in control of my life, I am a good person, I LOVE myself!" Then go out there and go-get-um!  

God Bless~Nora

We are here, we care. I feel alone in this sometimes too. 

How are things going with your boyfriend? Are you still 

together? 

  

Surround yourself with people that have been there and know 

how you are feeling, you can't ever get someone to understand. 

At least I never have been able to. That doesn't mean what you feel 

isn't real. Maybe I am way off of what is going on with you. 

  

I just know I hate it when people tell me to get over it, it is on the past 

and have a drink you will feel better, that's what they do. DRIVES ME
INSANE!

So

Quote From: kareno

i just visited and signed your guest book. i had to erase some of my story because of lack of space. i need someone to help me get my kids so bad. knowing how it feels all thru my life being abused not only sexually but mentally too, i cant bare the pain knowing my children are hurting and it wont sop when they grow up. I'm afraid this whole thing is killing me. some how i need to find a way to be at peace and to really know that God is in control. i try. i really do. i just don't see the sense in a child going thru this in our USA.  The thing is too, all of the damage that has been done has to be undone now. thank you so much for what your doing. if you save just 1 child it is worth it.

Are your kids being abused? If you think they are then why 

not call and report it to the state? Can you get a lawyer and 

see about custody? 

  

My therapist helped me when I was younger, she would report 

what was going on with my younger sister. Of course they  

moved to a different state every time, but we still reported them. 

It can't hurt and could get them to be safe. 

  

Unfortunately I don't think that what has been done can be "undone". 

Wow wouldn't that be nice, but they can get some help in how to  

deal with it all. 

  

God Bless You A LOT!

I feel alone too.  The scars and bruises haven't healed in the 22 years since my abuse stopped.  You don't get over it.  It is always with you..forever.  I have also found that everytime I hear of another child being molested or raped by a family member, friend or stranger on the news or television it brings back my own abusive past.

Empathy

That is empathy and some that have been abused don't have it. 

I think we are lucky to have those feelings for other victims, don't you? 

It has been abut that long for me too (22 years), it takes time and 

a lot of work to learn to deal with it, we don't get over it. It does get 

easier with time. Good to see you.

Childhood Sexual Abuse

I am so sick of everything to not even have support from my family. They suck. I hate it here. The person who sexually/phyically abused me IS STILL LiVING WITH ME!! AND I HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. The pychoglist is like why dont u just forgive him and move on. Im thinking why dont you stfu and have him say sorry. Thank god the other person who sexually abused me moved away!. But the past haunts me. It caused me to many problems and im ready for help unlike before and there making me wait and i cant anymore. Not the way i am.
