I am new to 7cups. I came on here to find some advice on what action to take. I was sexually used and abused by my brother of 3 years older than me. From the time I was 6 to 12. The secret is killing me. I have been through the ringer. I am 33 now. I was a criminal drug dealer and drug addict following up until 3 years ago when I got sober from oxys. I'm clean now and both of my brothers are not there for me and the only people there for me are parents and I so badly want to tell them so they understand the truth and that it's not their fault our family is not united. Mainly I want to be free of this one last secret. Should I tell them?

Tell them when you're ready. I talked in detail with some friends this morning about the abuse I went through, and I feel so relieved to finally get that off my chest. It was terrifying, but I feel better for it. If not for your parents, do it for you. I wish you the best and hope they're supportive.
@BlueIsQuiet thank you I'm going to do it on Monday

I feel so angry and dispairing Ive had to say goodbye to my dog Ive had 3 Boxers all rescued they have all had surgery and bad illnesses and not lived long I cant have another as the last two were difficult with kids and my daughter would not visit with the grandkids. Now I dont have a dog and Im upset and angry and dispairing and I miss my fur friend so much
Left out!😔
Sad and ashamed
That in one moment you manage to cause the one person who considered herself to be 'your biggest fan' to cease doing so and instead hate you, shun you and treat you as a criminal or as if you were dead :(
That happened 3 years ago, the pain has never subsided :(
I don't need those in my life to tell me that I'm a horrible person, I already think and feel that all on my own :(
Useless
Empty
Broken
Loneliness....
sanguine =]
