Im a survivor of well I'm not sure but I'm a survivor anyways. How can I learn to say no. Ever since I was raped in Miami i've had trouble saying no to anyone including family. Even if all I want to do is say no and do something for myself.

You are very brave for sharing with all of us. You may be suffering from low self esteem.
Here is a link to the forum. I hope you find the help you need.

I as well find it hard 2 say "no" 2 ppl & as a incest survivor (my father from the time I was 3 to 11),I've found that by always saying yes it would make ppl like me.I suppose it was a way of ensuring you always had peoples acceptance of you.
