I'm New Here...

[melissag29]

I wanted to say Hi to everyone. I'm glad I found this site, I've been dealing with what happened to me years ago and I can't get past it because I see my molester and rapist several times a month. He and his wife raised my brother and sister and to him, he's in control of everything in his house and yet he still has some form of control over me because of my siblings. I don't NOT want to see my siblings but how do you deal with something like this, or don't you? Because he'll still give me those looks he gave me when I was little and it's frightening to know, he never went to jail and never will.

May god give me strength to go on...!
