Question - (18 May 2010) 4 Answers - (Newest, 18 May 2010)
A female South Africa age 30-35, anonymous writes:

i have recently been remembering things that had happened to me. it all came flooding back. at the ages 6-8 someone sexually molested me. i dont know who did this to me, but i know it did happen. i can clearly remember what whoever it was did to me, the pain from it, and the feelings that followed. i can remember being scared each time that it happened again. i think i must have blocked it out at that stage. but now i know everything that happened. the thing is, this is really making me sad. i just want to cry the whole time. i will randomly stare into space and the scenes will play over and over in my head and i will just cry. im also terrified that something like this will happen to me again. its worst at nights, im so scared its rediculous. please any help...

Accountable agony auntDon't feel that what happened to you isnt bad just because someone, somewhere has had worse. You have every right to feel how you want to feel about this, and I completely understand you feeling terribly uncomfortable and unhappy right now.

I think the best thing for you to do would be to talk to someone you feel you can really trust about it - ideally your parents or an adult at your school. Lots of people don't like the idea of needing counselling, but it isnt something to be ashamed of - if your school can put you in touch with a counsellor, i would reccomend it, as they are trained to help people in your kind of situation work through those difficult emotions and come out the other side as a stronger and more confident person.

I hope you find a way to deal with what is coming back to you - remember that it was never something you deserved, but it happened, and you are strong enough to overcome it. Good luck :)

Surround yourself with pretty people and pretty things. They will distract your mind. Guess what hun? Shyt happens and we have to move on. its life. I realise how much pain it must cause you but guess what? its over.. Tell yourself that and just try to forget it. Dont let the past interfere a lot with your present orelse it will screw the future :)

Cheers

hi dear, please try to have 1-2 caring friends who will make you see positive things in life. many guys/girls have something dark from their childhood; i know about it. please read and view positive messages about life; and remember this, there are kids out there who have taken 100 times bad things than you; you owe it to yourself to show you are strong.
