@JustSam Well now that it all has come back up... everyday multiple times a day it can have an emotional impact on me to the point of hindering my routine. Without me wanting to. There was a time where I did think of it everyday but I wouldn’t allow myself to feel anything because I numbed myself with various vices; but nowadays I am just going through the motions of it all and I feel like it’s on my mind a lot more than I would like. Seems like almost anything can remind me of something on my worst days. i am so sorry you are still feeling this even years later. It’s just something that

@Kat7 we understand you here and you are not alone in this. I think when we are abused sexually in some way in our life, the idea of “sex” undoubtedly changes for us individually. Some of us can have a mindset of never wanting to do it again, while others need to do it now to try to mask the last memory of a “sexual encounter” they had even though it was factually rape or molestation. some of us want to do it a lot... for various reasons! It is a much more common reaction than talked about, which is a little unnerving because the victims end up being blamed for those actions if they want to
