Thank you so much OE. Your post puts things in better perspective. Although this has been surfacing for a few months, it seems to be rushing in like a tsunami now. I have had a couple of nightmares recently (I don't normally have nightmares) and very uncomfortable physical responses - headaches, queasy stomach, muscle pain - and the body doesn't lie, so I'm trying to accept that the abuse did happen. I also can't even verbalize it fully yet. I know I was abused in other ways but this is over the top.
