Wow, what an AWFUL thing to do....and the ripple effect!!!

I am ANGRY FOR YOU!!!

I had a similar experience recently with sharing some very personal details about a CSA experience that I had when I was a teen (with my boss)....with someone, and my sister (who knew about it briefly right after it happened) walked in on the conversation and got disgusted and angry with me for sharing it...

Like I didn't already feel bad enough about it....and allowed myself to be that vulnerable to share....to then have the feelings of such shame and humiliation overcome me because of my sister's disgust towards me for it....

Blech.

((( HUGS )))
