Is Forgiving wrong?
Trauma Support / by JTN
Last post
 February 23rd, 2021
...See more I was sexually abused by my father when I was younger....I'm 21 now and even though I forgave him sometimes I wonder if I was wrong for that. I haven't been able to look at pictures of him since the last I talked to him...when I was 15. I've been trying not to think of him but he gets out of Prison soon and I'm scared that I won't know what to do. I accidentally saw a picture of him tonight and I wanted to cry I couldn't help but be scared. I feel wrong for feeling this but all I wanted was to hug my Dad I wanted to be able to go back to being comfortable around him. I just wanted to be with my dad as I once was before everything. I know it won't be the same if I ever build up the courage to speak to him again but I can't help but feel like a helpless little girl waking up from a nightmare crying out for her dad to comfort her and tell her "it's just a bad dream everything will be okay".
