Healing means finding safety and peace. At the moment, I haven’t been able to secure safety. Reaching out to this site and consulting with you are the only steps I’ve managed to take so far. I hope for support and understanding to help me recover from my trauma and reclaim my life.

I want to learn to love myself enough that I don't fall for another person who does not love me.

I was used by my brother who has grown up a lot but I still carry scars.

First he did oral to me to show me it was not a big deal. I thought it was a huge deal. But I did it and he got me trained and had me keep it a secret, except from by best friend. He had his friend over when I had a sleepover one night and had her do it to his friend. Then th...

Survival. accept and accepted myself as an asexual which is my nature I realized at 50 years old

Hey! I'm 18, and all this happened a year and a half ago, I was 16. It's a really weird and messed up story, I never heard a similar one.

I dont know how long it lasted, I was scared what they would do when they're done, if they would kill me or let me run away. They let me go when they we...

You are still here despite everything. You are the strongest, most resilient person. Keep going, the pain may never go away, but it will fade with time, I promise you that.

Healing isn't always linear, there are ups and downs to every healing process. Just remind yourself that you didn't ask for that and it wasn't your fault.

For me healing is focusing on bettering myself for a better future and life. It takes time but it is very possible even small things like reading or doing self care is healing. Healing has no specific defenition and can be done by anyone.
