    Greetings From Norway!

    Thanks for the welcome everyone! :-)

    josiel, my husband is Norwegian and after giving it a go in USA for 3 years, we decided that moving to Norway would be the better place for raising a family. Was sad to read that you felt you needed to move away from it all. I hope that it has helped you. I also wish you the best on your healing journey. So grateful to have AS.

    lucyinthesky, I love that song!

    angelic, thanks! If I have any concerns or questions down the road I will surely come in contact with you.

    Hello everyone!

    I am an American living in Norway. I don't really know what to write here. My older brother sexually and physically abused me for several years. Nobody believed me when I cried for help. I have been called a liar, a spoiled brat, an attention getter just because of the many different ways I tried to get someone to listen or to help. All the people I trusted in my childhood let me down when they ignored me. So I have told myself to never trust again and I don't... not even my family nor psychologists. It is hard to trust people who have only shut me out when I needed them the most. I get so angry when people tell me that I am a liar. It makes me sad when people call me the crazy one when all I do is ask for help. "It isn't my business", "Stop with your false accusations"... how can people be so ignorant? Just a few years ago I learned that he sexually abused my 3 sisters and some of his classmates. I wouldn't be surprised if he also sexually and physically abused his own wife and daughter. Why do the abusers and manipulators get away with what they do? It's just not fair. I wish I had known about this forum long ago... maybe it could have spared me a lot of grief and pain. I doubt that I will ever heal and find peace. :-(
