Hi Everyone

[Jayemcee]

Hi Everyone, I was a victim of sexual abuse by my oldest brother. I told my parents when I was 13 and after a few rounds of counseling, the abuse was swept under the rug and I was made to pretend that nothing had happened, and that we were a "normal" and happy family. I am now 32 and have recently told my husband of my past abuse as I have been having emotional breakdowns that I really couldn't control. My panic attacks and anxiety have also returned. Would love to chat with others who have similar stories, or anyone needing a shoulder to lean on or cry on. Thanks for listening.
