I recently spoke to my T about being sexually abused as a child by other children at school. I've never spoken to anyone about it and even though i was able to say that it had happen during a therapy session i fairly quickly skipped over it onto something else. My T said that we have to take this slowly as she doesnt want me to be re-traumatised. I understand that and i'm very grateful that she is so sensitive. However i dont know how to delve deeper into this issue. We are now going to look at my shame/anger loop and i'm thoroughly expecting the abuse to come up in these sessions. T says that if i feel able to it may be useful to talk about the abuse in detail. My gut reaction was wanting to vomit and to run screaming from the room. I know i will ultimately do what is right for me with her support. I just wondered if anyone on here had had this experience and if so found it a useful process and if so do you have any thoughts/advice?
Thanks for taking the time to read this
