(((((zoo))))

I just remembered something my T said to me when I disclosed my CSA to someone a few weeks ago.

She's only the second person (besides T) that I've really told IRL, and I told her because she had shared about her own CSA, and I know how unbelievably crappy it feels to feel alone with it.

T told me (repeatedly) that no matter how she reacts, it is HER issue. I know that he was proud of me for being able to tell...but I also know he was worried that she would have some kind of reaction (running away, whatever) that would make me feel bad about telling. He said her reaction is her reaction, and it is about her, not me.

I actually haven't seen her since I told her...twice when I was somewhere we would normally be together, she wasn't there. I'm not sure what that means, actually. But I know T is right. It was okay to tell, and no matter what she does or doesn't do now, *I* am okay.

I just wanted to share that with you
