Hi there. I am a survivor of sex abuse. And the emotional abuse goes right along with that, as the abuser uses emotional abuse to keep you from talking about what they are doing. There was also physical abuse involved, and while me and my sisters experienced it, my brother is the one that got the brunt end of it.I know all too well the struggles a person goes through to find healing in the midst of anger, confusion, and depression. Although the pain will always follow me, I have been able to reach a point where, through prayer and forgiveness, I have felt healing in my life. And I am so grateful for that. Through this, I have always desired to reach out to others and offer my story and messages of hope. But I didn't know how. Joining forums like these is helpful. And I hope I can touch someone else. I also recently start a blog if anyone is interested in checking it out. http://fromhopelesstohopeful.blogspot.com
I look forward to meeting new people on this site. The best way to heal from something like this is to talk about it.
