hey everyone,
i am not sure how to word my feelings, all i know is that i have been violated.i might have an eating disorder and nobody around me cares. i am very upset about the sexual abuse rite now. i am not a poet but... Sometimes it's hard to see whats been there all along You see her crying and don't even ask what's wrong Have you ever thought about how she might feel? Her pain isn't hiding on the inside anymore, and it's not fake it's real So what's the story behind the tears? She's always been so quiet for so many years You look at her and think she hasnt ever been through pain or been used Well there's more than that, she's been sexually abused So she set herself free and now she ain't in no more pain But no matter where she is she'll never be the same i want to report it all but i feel like i cant.i know there are hot-lines and police and guidance councilors but i can never talk to anyone about this. i am being used i dont like it . i am scared , when i am awake , when i am asleep when i am alone... i started to tell my old guidance councilor but then i ended up lying and telling her that is was not true. i find it easy to talk about it over the internet , because i feel like i can always delete it ... maybe i am reading to much into all of this, maybe i should move on-it has not happend in a while and i am aware that most people on this website have bigger problems to deal with please if you are gonna respond dont tell me tell someone or to report it ps this is my friends username so my name is not tori :] |

Hey, well..I'm not going to tell you to report it because that's something you'll have to decide to do for yourself.
But I can tell you that most people on this site don't have bigger problems than yours, and that yours is a legitimate problem..this site is for us to all try to help each other, and therefore every problem deserves attention. Besides that, sexual abuse IS a big deal and so I think what you have to say is important. Just my opinion, I think that you shouldn't let whoever does/did it get away with it..do with that what you will. Sorry this happened/s to you =( And I liked your poem, even though it made me sad =) |

I may have read this wrong, but are you still around the person who hurt you?
I know it's hard to talk about, but you are not alone in this, and you're problem is not smaller than anyone else. Don't be afraid to talk to us here. Especially about this. Could you write a letter to your guidance counselor? Sometimes writing a letter, even if you just tear it up, can be helpful as it lets you get everything out. You said you want to report it, but you are scared, well it's perfectly okay to be scared. I was terrified to report it, and I almost didn't, but everything got better once I told someone. Even talking to a friend, or a friends parent can work. And your poem, is very good. I like it, I can relate. If you need anything, don't hesitate to pm me.

Like they said, reporting it is something you have to decide, but you should know that time isn't the only and not always the way to make things better. I know what abuse is like, and it is horrible. I don't wanna scare you or anything, but I haven't been abused in a few years and it still affects me every day. But I'm here for you hon. [hug]
and btw, I liked the poem, even though it is sad... ~Sum “I cannot prevent anyone from getting angry, or mad, or frustrated. I can only hope that they’ll turn that anger and frustration and madness into something positive, so that two, three, four, five hundred will step forward, so the gay doctors will come out, the gay lawyers, the gay judges, gay bankers, gay architects … I hope that every professional gay will say ‘enough’, come forward and tell everybody, wear a sign, let the world know. Maybe that will help.” Harvey Milk, 1978

Actually, I think that privacy/discretion, is available when dealing with something like this. If you talked to an authority, or a therapist or whatever I don't believe that they would tell the world. I've never done that, I'm just speculating. I really think your anonymity would be respected, like this could all be handled out of the limelight.
And also, I don't think you're a baby for being emotionally torn up, because in a lot of ways I agree that emotional turmoil is a lot more substantial than physical pain. Tyler |

As the OP has asked for no more responses, I am going to go ahead and close this.
