Hi.

[JoLei]

Hi, I'm JoLei and I'm new here. I found this site a few days ago after looking for survivor resources. I was raped about 18 years ago and recently started remembering sexual abuse from a family friend before that. I thought I was crazy, until my sister and mother confirmed things for me. I'm pretty much still in shock because every day, I'm remembering more and it's connecting so many dots in my life. I just wanted to connect with other people who have gone through similiar things. Thanks.

Welcome there Jolei,

Sorry for the reason you are here in first place.

Maybe you can find some support and healing and get grip on your life back again.

How great your mom and sis are supporting you.
