Child Abuse - Tell Tell Tell

by Michelle F
(Missouri, USA)

I am a 40 year old female I want to let people know that you can survive,each day you have to survive,you are stronger than the one that abused you.because they are cowards,I would like to try to help the people that have lost hope,that need to keep going,if only for the reason to save their own lives,because one we lose is one to many.They need to talk,TELL,TELL,TELL, for most of us didn't. I also think we need to have a walk you know like everybody else does for a cause,this is just as important for everyone to openly talk about abuse to let people know we are here to help.

Each of us must find the way we can best make a difference. You, Michelle, as well as many of my regular visitors, make a huge difference each time you comment on someone's story. It's the kind of difference that can't be measured. And don't just think that the difference is in the life of the person who wrote the story, because it goes much deeper than that. The difference we make when we comment is to each and every person who reads the story and the comments, and then what that person does to make a difference, and so on and so on. There is a true dominoes effect here. So by all means, organize a walk for child abuse awareness if that's what you are compelled to do. Just don't brush aside the tremendous good you already do by posting on this site, whether the post is a story, an article, a commentary or a comment to someone. Especially when you encourage victims to Tell. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and all-important message with my visitors and me.

no one beleived me
by: Anonymous

I do agree with you. Child abusers are cowards, they must have seriouse problems themselves & lack moral value to do such a thing. I was 4 years old when the worst of it started, the stepmother came into my life, she was truly a 'wicked stepmother' I was made a slave & made to always feel afraid of her from the beggining till I finally got out at age 14, I'm now struggling with my life still age 30, I feel so weak that I cannot change my anxiety, social phobia & many other issues, it seems it will never happen for me & I know only I can 'do it' but I feel 'completely stuck' I want to kill my ex stepmother yet I know it's better to beat her by succeeding myself in life, I've known this for over 10 years but.... anyway I told a psychiatrist or psychologist I was seeingh at age 6...nothing, I told school councilors...nothing, I told many family members...nothing, I was the bad little girl so who would believe me? Still crying & dying

by: michelle f

we keep letting them kill us over and over gotta stop.THAT IS WHAT LIVING AFTER ABUSE IS ABOUT,we keep believing it is our fault because it happened or we didn't tell or we dressed that way or we looked that way STOP STOP STOP blaming ourselves.JUST STOP take time for feeling what has happened because we try so hard to push it out and away from our hearts we never take the time to actually FEEl it,have to accept it deal with it move on I pray you hear what my heart is telling you.I pray you can forgive the one that has hurt you it will set you free,stop hating ourselves nd them we are alive we will survive.
