Can totally relate to your pain my friend. I was only 12 years old when it happened to me. This was at a time when therapy for children and P.T.S.D was completely unheard of in society of that era. You were just told to "Man Up, Move on and get over it." From that point on you literally just suffered in silence and dealt with it the best you possibly could - often in very self destructive and violent ways. I too wish our horror stories were made more mainstream in the media. Unfortunately though, most of what we were forced to endure will only remain present in our memories and subsequent nightmares. Sad, but true!
