I would like to reply to this, because I to was hurt as a child, Personally how I deal with this issue you mentioned is I accept that it was once apart of my life, and now I'm free from that experience. We'll never forget what had happened to us, but well move on, and learn from the experience. What I've learned from the experiences from my childhood is to do the complete opposite with my children. Even if you don't have children these experiences can teach you many things like life has pain and suffering, I accept that, and I'll do my best with my future, and hopefully one day reach the ultimate grace.
I'm glad your doing well with this. I hope I could have helped.
