[Not Sure I Should Be Here..]

You should definitely be here! It is not your fault, you were too young! My story is alittle similar to yours and you have to keep telling yourself that you are not at fault! It isn't your fault for your brother's illness! I hope you find the comfort you need here and if you ever need to vent or just a friend to talk to you can message me anytime.

[A Newbie On To New Friends And New Beginnings]

Hey, I hope you find the help you need here at AS. I just joined here too and already I feel better because I shared my story with people which is the first step in recovery. I have been dealing with my abuse for 12 years. So, if you ever want to talk, I am here.

[*t* Hi, Im The New Girl!]

hey, I was also a child abuse victim (physical, emotional, and sexual, not mentioning the neglect). I know how you feel, except I didn't get help for mine, I had just been dealing with it, until I joined here. So, if you ever want to talk, I am here.

[Hey, This Is My Story]

Hey, I am Crystal and I am a victim of sexual, physical, and verbal abuse. I was five at the time but I did not remember any of it until I was 13 when I began having flashbacks. I don't know what triggered the flashbacks and I don't understand why I didn't remember any of it. I am now 17 and I still get depressed and sometimes I think about suicide but I always change my mind right before. I want so bad to consider myself a survivor, not a victim. My friends do not understand, I just need someone else's opinion. I welcome anybody's advice, please help.
