My story....

...See more My name is Dianne. I'm not really sure how to start off so I'll just dive right into it I suppose. I was sexually abused by my step father. One day when I was five I woke up to find him on top of me and touching me. He told me that if I told anyone he'd make my mom go back to Mexico. At the time she wasn't exactly legal and I'd heard so many stories of familles getting torn apart after deportation so I just...kept my silence. It was all touches and making me touch him until I was about 12 years old when he finally forced himself on me. He used sex as a means of punishment very often with myself (though he never laid a hand on my siblings) That continued on until I was 19 before I left for school...Now, I'm actually quite terrified when men show any romantic interest in me. I know I should seek professional help, but the fact of the matter is that I can't afford it. So...yep thats me.
