For the last few months I've felt like I want to be assulted, even though if it ever did happen I'd hate it. Whats wrong with me. I dont know if I just want attention or what. In the past I've faked passing out. Whats wrong with me? I'm 17 and I'm confused.

Help!

I don't think that "survivors of Abuse" forum is appropriate for this question.

I think victims of abuse can try and find empowerment over their abuse by fantasizing it happening to them. That way they are the "abuser and the victim" so yes this is the right place to ask such a question. Survivors of abuse come in different shapes and sizes, we don't all end up hiding in a corner, it does real serious damage to our psyche.

I feel the same way you do emilyjeanne.

If one were visualizing an assualt and over coming it. That would be different.

Perhaps just by visualizing the assault, one is overcoming it within??

I wonder if mentally consenting to it makes one feel more in control.

Zelda, those feelings are coming from somewhere. Whether it's something inside or outside of you, there is a reason for it. Can you think of what the trigger might be for you to feel this way? Also, what benefit might there be to you in these wishes, feelings, faking passing out? For example, does it fill a need for nurturing and care? Or to know that you exist?

I'm sry if this was the wrong place to put this.

I dunno, I'm just feeling like I'm a horrible person for feeling like this. But I can't tell anyone who knows me in real life because They'll talk and think me crazy. If I tell my school cousenler since I'm a minor she'll tell my parents. I know I probabley need help but I really cant tell anyone else. I don't want people to think bad of me, which is self absorbed.

I guess I feel like if I get assalted in some way people will be nice to me and talk to me more. I really dont have any friends from school and so I guess if something happened then I would get more attention from school. I get plenty from home I guess I just want more from school. WTH is wrong with me. I sound totally self centered. I guess I want to be more noticed?

Help?

Thanks for all the help. Hopefully I can get over this
