Things that every survivor should know...

[EmberFae]

No it wasn't your fault
No it didn't matter how old you were it was still wrong
Yes they try to blame it on you
Someday you will be free
No we wont look back on it and laugh so lets not kid ourselves
Don't let the press get you down by saying the victims turn into the abusers just use it as fuel to make sure we are BETTER than that


ok I feel bettter for ranting

Thanks for posting this.

I know it wasn't my fault. But, there is a big difference in accepting this and believing it. I have accepted it that it wasn't my fault...I just need to believe it.

I will look forward to the day when I can be free from my past without any worries!

I used to have a problem with this one. I used to be afraid to have children. I used to worry that I would abuse them like I was abused.

Thank God I was saved before I had children, and even though I wasn't yet healed of the wounds, I could see how really sick a person would have to be to treat a child so badly. I had no desire or temptation to do to my children what was done to me.

Your site looks very good and informative. I have only had a quick glance as my mood is not great at the moment, but there is some good stuff there. Keep it up.

It's great that you have a section on DID and anxiety, They are always overlooked unfortunately !

I struggle with all of these...i feel like i'm drowning and wonder why God made me.

We all struggle with these...it's just something we all need to hear from time to time,
I am sure you are a wonderful person, there is so much in your life you will one day be able to acheive...21...Just think one day you will be happy!
Confidence often comes with age in these situations try and think positively which is the stupidest thing to say but try it
We are all fighting for this you're not on your own
*hugs*
