If you don't mind me asking - did you also disclose who the perpetrator was?

Possible trigger:

(I'm toying with the idea of telling my parents that I was sexually assaulted as a child, but I don't think I trust them with the whom. I'm afraid they would take action, call the person, something like that. So I was thinking of saying something like "it wasn't by a family member or one of your friends/acquiantances but I'm not telling you who it was")

Yes, I did. It was an immediate family member, so it was hard for my dad to hear. But it's your experience, you don't have to say anything about it tgat you don't want to. If you don't want to tell them who it was that's okay and yours to keep to yourself.
