Child Abuse Story From Donna

by Donna
(Texas, USA)




Letters: 
I was between 4 and 6 when it started and I remember the smells and God awful looks. I also remember running away. When I asked my therapist why I remember that he said it was because I was so young and the only way to cope. He was right. I remember when he would do it; only when his father beat my mother. He stole so much from me; my childhood, my innocence,yes, even my favorite cartoons and toys. He would sodomize me with my favorite toys; how sick is that? Then, when my favorite cartoon was on; he'd give me that look; anyone who's been hurt or molested knows the look. The worst thing is I thought I was through with this; I sought counsel and it worked, My counsel said to write a letter detailing how it made you feel as if you were to send it; I did and it worked for a real long time until he found me on FAcebook; really what else could he want or take from me? I have a good life now with two beautiful kids and a husband that loves me unconditionally so why am I so angry all the time? I really don't know how to deal with this and desperately need help.

First and foremost, block this pitiful excuse of a man from your Facebook page. Contact Facebook directly if he continues to harass you; that's the letter you most need to write now. And it's really important that you not disclose information about where you live or anything about your children. To do so would be to put your children at risk. The fact that he's gotten in touch with you through Facebook has triggered all the fear he instilled in you when you were a child. Lean on all the tools and resources your counsellor helped you to find when you were in counselling. Go back if that's possible. Doing so doesn't mean that you've failed or that you aren't as strong as you thought you were. Get that out of your mind. There is real danger with this sick pedophile, and you must now respond to that. And while writing letters that you don't intend to send can be incredibly cathartic, when an abuser seeks contact, it puts a whole different light on things. Do what you must in order to protect your Self and your children. I send you love, light and positive energy, Donna. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.
