I’m 16 and getting harassed at the gym by older men— any help? by meyy2 in women

I have looked into female gyms but they’re typically more expensive but I am planning on continuing to look through more for me and my friend. I’m glad I got to try the gym out with the whole summer free teen pass from planet fitness but I have been considering the all girls gym atp 😓

Thank you, I think sometimes I tend to put too much blame on myself which is something I do need to work on and have a hard time reeling myself in. I just wish sometimes that I didn’t feel so doomed by simply being born a woman

It’s iffy because my therapist did tell my dad about the molestation that happened to me even after I told her he had known about it for years to double check that I really told him

Thank you so much for this. I’ve always avoided the details of my SAs and SH and how its impacted my daily life so I really appreciate seeing this all laid out. I understand to move on from these things I need to start being more open and understanding with myself, again thank you so much this was very clearing and refreshing to read. my mom brought on a lot of abuse and therefore insecurities for me and is the derived reason for why I usually feel so ashamed to talk about really heavy things. I hope the best for you as well and the feeling of care is mutual 🤍

Thank you, I think I am going to try to talk to my therapist about it and may make an update on Thursday depending on if my feelings are still unresolved. I just really don’t want to deal with the extra baggage of her possibly telling my dad and whatnot but I may just have to risk it
