...See more I’ve told my story on here before. I was sexually abused from the age of 11-16 by the same person.. a cousin of mine. I’m about to be 21. I’ve been strong for my family because the cousin is on my moms side and she tried sweeping it all under the rug. Meanwhile my dad went absolutely mad. It destroyed what was left of my parents relationship and I’ve been strong to help both of them. Telling my dad I’m on the other side of it now and telling my mom it’s ok. But I’m not ok. It haunts me.. all the time. And I don’t know when this will end. It’s been 5 years this month since it ended and I’m still not ok. When will I be ok…

Living with CPTSD

...See more I was raped by my older cousin when I was 11 in my sleep. He took my virginity and proceeded to sexually abuse me for 6 years after that. This included rape as well as all of his creepy perverted fantasies. The abuse was brutal and extremely traumatic both physically and mentally, leaving me with some nerve damage internally in my reproductive areas. This cousin was like my best friend before all of this happened. The day it all started was also the day my trust in people was destroyed. Living with CPTSD is a nightmare. I have night terrors and nightmares on the daily and I am scared of so many things others consider childish. I panic at small things and have flash backs. This affects my current relationships with both my husband and friends and family… it’s just so hard. My husband honestly is a trooper for helping me through a lot of these things and being patient with me.

...See more I was raped and sexually abused for 6 years by an older cousin of mine who was basically my best friend when we were very little. He took my virginity when I was 11 and asleep. After that first event, followed 6 years of torture that has left me with nerve damage in my reproductive system. I don’t know how to keep going forward sometimes. It’s been two years since the abuse ended, but since it was a family member and it all came to light when I was still a minor, my mother dropped the case and justice was never served.
