I'm not quite sure what I was expecting to get from this site, but I hope I can find some people who can empathize with what I'm going through. Years ago, one of my alcoholic dad's friends touched me inappropriately. I was 6 years old. The other night I was drinking with some friends and a sex offended who happened to be in our yard put his arm around me. It instantly triggered something inside of me that I haven't been able to shake. I've been having chronic anxiety since the incident and I really wish I could just move on and not let it bother me. Unfortunately however, life isn't fair. If anyone has any tips please reach out to me.

Seeing a therapist could help.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
