This is a horrible story and terrible ordeal you endured!!! I can't imagine surving all of that! You are a strong person. I read this for the first time today! It makes me feel very sad for you with all that you went through, not only the sexual and physical abuse but, having to go to the meetings and be shunned as if something were wrong with you. All of the adults in that story should have been shunned, because they were supposed to protect you not blame you, you were only a child and teenager. Anyway, I hope you are at a far better place. I wish for your ongoing recovery. I know it takes a long time. I will PM you also. Thank you for being brave enough to share your story!
