Not Growly obviously, but two of my T's have told me about an abuse history. It was done in a way like "this is a page in the book of my life, this happened to me (no gory details), I'm not ashamed to acknowledge it and you don't need to feel sorry for me or take care of me." No claims to being "healed," but I understood they were doing fine and had dealt with it in therapy.
Kind of like how I prefer people respond on the rare occasions that I admit my own CSA.
