Hi, I've had about 10 counselling sessions so far but finding it hard going, especially trying to put things into words so I thought I'd try starting in here. I feel abit selfish as I'm quite new and not responded to many posts on the site yet but please bare with me. Reading your posts on here has given me hope for the future, you show such strength.

I can't remember a time when I wasn't abused, either verbally, sexually or physically. There were alot of people involved, other children aswell which resulted in them commiting suicide.

That's as far as I can go with talking about it as I can feel myself sinking so I'm going to stop there.

hi
that's a good first step - and knowing when to stop is a great second step to care for yourself. i'm sorry things were so hard for you - but glad that you were able to keep living.

Welcome to pc and I'm so glad you took this big step by talking here....that was very brave....I know first hand about childhood abuse and what it does to you....please take it one step at a time and dont overwhelm yourself, therapy is tough and will set you back sometimes, but that is normal, please keep reaching out here and only tell what you need to or feel like at the time...you are amongst friends and good support here....pm me any time, I am from the UK so there is a time difference depending on where you are from... sending hugs and a hand to hold if you are struggling....

love and care, Jinnyann xxxxxxx
