Do the fears go away?
hi. im 16 years old and from ages 7 to 11 my father molested and raped me (he beat me my entire childhood). I know its over now and generally i think im healing but still alot of nights i cant get myself to even close my eyes, im terrified of what might happen. do any of u go through this? if so does it get better? thanks.
I was abused by my father when I was younger, I'm away from him now. I know how it feels. Sometimes I feel fine, then I remembered everything that happened. I don't think I will ever be ok. Being with my boyfriend; once I broke out crying because I remembered it. I hope one day it will be better, that's what keeps me living.

Thank you for sharing your story. You did not deserve what happened to you, and I am so happy to see that even though it triggers sometimes, you are still on the path to recovery and living everyday to get there. Continue to have relationships, and smile everyday. If you need support at anytime, I am always available!
When I was 4 my oldest brother started molesting me until I was about the age of 11 he was 10 when he did it in now I'm 13 and he's 19 I've never told anyone my secret only when I'm anonymous I can't stand not anyone knowing because I have to see him all the time and I can't do anything because I don't want to change the way people look at me so yes I feel how you do sometimes I feel like everything's fine it's over he won't do it and sometimes I sob at night remembering all the things he did to me.
Thank you guys. You're both such strong people, stay golden. If u want someone to talk to u can come to me

Oh sweetie, I am so very sorry that you had to experience that! You absolutely did not deserve any of what happened to you!
I am so glad that you think you are starting to heal. It most definitely can be a long journey.
I would encourage you to reach out for any support that you feel that you need!
You do not have to be alone in this, and you really do deserve all the support in the world!
I don't even know you, but already I am so proud of how far you have come!
Please do take care!
My fears don't go away what should I do I've tried to stick with it but it comes back to haunt me and I even remember I had a nightmare because of it I see things in my dreams that turns into nightmare than it becomes fear and I'm also having phobia of spiders too.
hi there,
you are an incredibly brave person, I am glad to hear that this is over now and that you are starting to heal, however I can understand that the fear is still there.
The trouble is that when we grow up always expecting bad things to happen, its very hard to break the fear. It's natural that you will still feel fear, and that should fade with time.
You said that what happened is over now, can I ask if you still live with your father? I hope you are safe and away from him.
For me it has been over 15 years since my abuse stopped and I still feel the fear sometimes, but it is much less now than it was a few years ago.
You are healing and you are brave, you can beat this and show your father that he hasn't broken you.
Stay strong
