Thank you sharing your story. Your honesty and your bravery to tell speaks volumes to your recovery. I know that this was so hard for you to put out here but I thank you for posting and reaching out. I can relate to some of what you said. Being a victim myself my heart was pulled at many things you said. But I am so proud of you for sharing.

You are right that a positive can come out of a negative thing in your life. The one thing I see coming out is that you are willing to be open and honest and look at yourself. You have shared and given others hope and possibly said what someone cannot say but needs to. Being willing to look at our situation and learn from it and grow and heal is something to be proud of. That you are doing everyday.

Tears fill my eyes as I sit here remembering and feeling so much within. I am sorry that you had to go through this for it was not right nor was it your fault. I heard you say the additions you had but no is no and he heard you. He knew it was wrong and you were only a child. Even if you had not said no it still was not your fault.

My heart goes out to you and I thank you for sharing and for allowing us to step into your truth. Inside I hurt and my tears fall for what you endured. But I also cry for the realizations and changes you have been able to make for you. When I saw this I remembered the first time I ever opened up here and the fear I felt also, the place I was in then and where I am now and that I am still alive.

Atreyu, we are here for you and we are listening. We care and thank you for allowing us your trust. You are not alone. Sending you gentle hugs and loving thoughts. Always.
