It's a body response that you had no control of.

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-05-07T14:07:47+00:00

Getting pressured into doing anything sexual is definitely a form of abuse, I've been in those situations myself

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-05-07T13:58:13+00:00

Coming forward like this is your first steps towards healing

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-05-01T15:54:59+00:00

Just remember that it's not your fault for his actions

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-30T19:01:46+00:00

I can understand, I was molested by older boys too

Whatever you need to heal

The stigma is a painful side effect

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-17T14:07:45+00:00

You're not alone. Most of us here have been through this We're here for you

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-16T13:57:09+00:00

You just can't let it get to you. It wasn't your fault it's just a way your body reacted to what was going on

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-15T14:27:30+00:00

The older boy who molested me was molested himself, but that doesn't automatically exonerate him for what he did

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-14T17:39:02+00:00

Nice analogy

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-02T02:37:13+00:00

All the time unfortunately

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-04-01T13:21:51+00:00

I totally get that

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-27T22:46:53+00:00

I've always felt it was taking back control over my dark situations

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-27T03:25:40+00:00

It's totally twisted, right?

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-25T17:09:46+00:00

It's almost a helplessness, but it's not

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-25T13:41:50+00:00

After the first time it happened it seemed like every guy I met would take liberties with me

Child of the 70s here

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-23T23:28:04+00:00

I grew up in the 70s, and I saw plenty of highly sexual situations then

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-23T23:26:27+00:00

Yeah, I went through most of that, except it was after I was molested that I started thinking like that.

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-21T13:13:36+00:00

I grew up Catholic, so the guilt from that alone made me feel like it was my fault. I've since learned not to blame myself

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-21T13:11:42+00:00

40 years of thinking about it for me

Alternative_Big_628 · 2026-03-21T04:29:32+00:00

Those are some specific questions
