I am 55 years old and only now have I been able to say more than "I was sexually abused as a child." I am amazed right now at how I am able to talk a bit more about what happened. All I can say, from my experience, is that it takes as long as it takes to heal. Keep working at it, don't force things - don't do or say anything that makes you feel bad or uncomfortable. It will all happen, your voice will come when you are ready. Also don't blame yourself for how ever long it takes for you to heal. You are doing the best you can, take care of yourself.
