Hi,
Ten years after my abuse, and a year into therapy. I had my first flashback. before thahad been asked have I ever been abused and i defensively said no. Since then I have one memory after the next. My mind came out of its silence, i dont know why. Listen to urself as hard as it will be to believe u. Talk to someone to help figure out if all this is real. I dont wanna jump to conclusions saying that is is. But for me, its was. The person, a close relative, wont admit to it. But the memories are so r eal. I know they dont lie.
Hang in there......it took me a week to actually exhale
