Hi lettie thnx for sharing now that i don't feel so alone and knowing we can share our tragic childhoods and how we r surviving our mess in our life thnx again hope we can support each other and come through together thnx again for sharing with me, just remember we r stronger and we will continue to be stronger and survive our nightmares and also knowing that we can depend on god, but sometimes i wondered why god put us through this tragic ness but i guess this experience will help others too we will be there for others like us support each other awesome to know I'm not alone anymore and you also , thank you again ..love Summer
I read a book about a girl who survived horrific incest and abuse from her father, brothers and neighbors. In it she talked about how most of the people involved in her situation were dead. One of her brothers died from cancer, several of his friends had died from drug overdoses, some suicide. . .the point is that she survived, and not only did she survive, but she wanted to find something to LIVE for.
That hit me! I want to LIVE, not just survive. I want to do something good with the bad that has happened to me. But, I can't do it alone. I need support of others. My therapist says that we were abused in groups (even groups of 2) and that we heal in groups. To me that means that I must continue to reach out and ask for help. . .do whatever it takes to heal. Together. . . we will.
