Child Abuse Story From Jessica

by Jessica
(New Zealand)

All by myself:
When i was younger i got sexually abused my brother, i thought it was normal because, he was my brother my older one, you can trust them right, I cant remember when it exactly started but it was sometime round the age of 6-7-8. it started with me showing him my body because "he asked" turned into dares, he would also pay me, film me. i thought it was normal until i realized well it wasn't, we haven't really talked about it, but im scared, im scared of telling my parents, what would they think of it? In some ways i think it is my fault, but then i know there are worse things in this world people have been abused a lot worse. I feel almost "stupid" telling this, but it feels good to get it out of my system. i have told a few friends, ones that i can trust. I am 14 years old now, i try not to think about it but it always crosses my mind, i hope to work through it in my life. I have never been to any kind of help as I am trying to get through it myself.

Thank you for reading my story :)

None of us who were abused gets through it by ourselves. We all need to reach out for help somewhere along the way; otherwise, we can't find the path toward healing and recovery. What happened to you at the hands of your brother was not your fault. You have no guilt or shame to bear. Guilt and shame is squarely on the shoulders of your brother because he chose to sexually offend you. You were a child. He took advantage of that and of your vulnerabilities, and he used them against you. He "groomed" you, Jessica. And now you're blaming yourself for something you have no blame in. Please reconsider your stance on getting professional help. A counsellor can help you deal with the repercussions, as well as the self-blame. You deserve that kind of help. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.
