Child Abuse Story From Schyular

by Schyular W.
(Los Angeles, California, USA.)




Really, it all just happened. Looking back now, it seems like a distant memory that had torn its way into me like some kind of parasite.

It all started after my 6th birthday. I am the twin to the more favored daughter in my family. Julia was always the one my mother adored. My father, on the other hand, turned a blind eye on the family entirely.

My mom, brother and Julia had gone to the store, while I got to stay home, due to a little headache I had gotten. My dad was on the couch, and I was on his Lazy Boy, just trying to get my headache to go away. I can't remember entirely what happened, but I'll try my best here.

He had asked me if I had wanted a lollipop, and I said yes, so I got off the chair and walked over to him. He ripped off my skirt, and threw me onto the coffee table...then, he ripped off most of my clothing, and held me down while he entered me, and raped me, leaving behind my blood and wetness. He made me clean it up, and then slapped me whenever I missed a spot.

It went on until I was 15, when my boyfriend got involved. My dad tried to molest me while he was there, and my boyfriend bashed him a lamp.

We're married now with two healthy wonderful children, and, sometimes, only sometimes, does that thought occur to me.

Thank you for sharing...
by: Darlene Barriere - Webmaster

I thank you for sharing your story here, Schyular. I do hope you are in some form of counselling to help you deal with the emotional turmoil of growing up the unfavoured one, and then having to endure sexual abuse at the hands of a man who was supposed to protect you and keep you safe from harm.

I can feel your pain
by: Nikki

Schyular, I can understand your pain. Though I am a man and I have never been raped myself, I have been a witness to my sister's rapings. I can see in your writing that you are trying to brush this off, And that is alright. If you are in a safe place, then forgetting or ignoring is perfectly fine. But I would like to offer you a bit of advice: Listen to Darlene. Counseling may seem strange or uneeded, but it will help. I was dead set against counseling at first, but after taking the advice from Darlene, I have found that she was right: Counseling does help, even if it's painful at first.The hardest part has actually passed, believe it or not. You told your story, and the first time is always the hardest. So now you will find it easier to speak of the things that have happened to you. I would also like to extend a thanks to your boyfriend. He showed courage and love at a crucial point in time. Such an act does not go unpraised, by anyone. I want to tell him that he is a real man, one that is deserving of such a special woman. And you truley are a special woman.
Godbless,
Nikki
