A number to call...
by: Darlene Barriere - Webmaster

Missy, while I thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me, you are in a crisis situation, a crisis that no one who visits here can help you with. You must ask for help. Please contact ChildLine on 0800 1111. Check out their website at www.donthideit.com. What happened to you wasn't your fault; blame lies squarely on the shoulders of your sex offending father for all the abuse he inflicted on you. You did nothing wrong! Your mother was not there for you when you needed her most, but now she is back in your life. Try talking to her. Be honest with her about what you are feeling and what happened to you. And if you can't talk to her, talk to your nan. Perhaps there is a counsellor at school you can sit down with. Just don't do this alone. And please read the comments that were written for Amber1 at Child Abuse Story From Amber. They apply to you every bit as much as they apply to Amber.

Missy, what you experienced was never your fault. To experience any sort of peace, you'll need to share your story with a counselor, confidant, or another professional with abuse expertise. I hope that your dad no longer has any contact with children, if he does you may have to contact authorities for their sake. You have to realize that God does love you (although this may be difficult to believe) and perhaps your new church friends will have a role with supplying you with some very much needed and deserved peace.Please stop hurting yourself, as it appears you have much to offer the world.

A monster for a dad...and similar memories
by: Anonymous

Missy, I'm sorry that you didn't have a good childhood...I went through the same thing...the meat thing, yes, I can relate; my mom used to make homemade stew and I hated it. I was 2 or 3 when I remember being made to eat it, throwing up in my bowl and still being made to eat it, even when I was 10. I'm a practicing vegetarian, but they don't care. I remember the last time I was forced to eat the basil and garlic sausage and I hated it; I tried to tell my parents not to make me eat it anymore and they told me that I "needed psychiatric help" and then shoved all the pieces of sausage down my throat until I literally puked.
OK, back to your pervert for a father. What he did to you is horrendous and I hope that disgusting pervert gets incarcerated for all those terrible disgusting crimes that he committed against you. You don't deserve to be mistreated. You might want to try counselling cuz you are worth the help that you deserve. I wish you all the best.

Seek Help For your Pain
by: Linda

Missy, Please seek help for your emotional problems, brought on by that Pediphile, who had the nerve to call himself your father.He raped you and he should be sent to prison, away from small children. My guess is, he has done the same thing to other little children. But has never been told on. Call the number that Darlene has given you, so you can get control of your life and get over the cutting and purging. These are cries for help. Don't let that low-life father of yours, take away your life. The way he took away your innocence. Please call the numbers and report this horrible man.....Good luck, Missy.

You are an inspiration
by: Anonymous

I am so sorry. I can't even begin to comprehend how you feel. I hope you grow up and find a nice man who deserves you. Knowing what that awful man did to you just makes me sick and disgusted. I am in no postion to understand how you feel, but i am certainly feeling depressed now. I am not sure that what i have suffered classifies as abuse but i have lost intrest in everything i used to love. it helps me greatly to know that i am not alone. There is no way for me to get out, because I only turned 14 on March 13. I look up to every single one of you who have posted your stories on this site. you all give such inspriation to me, and im sure many others. you all prove that no matter what happens, everyone can survive. when i grow up i want to become a social worker to help all the children who have grown up in an unsuitable enviornment and who have no where else to go. consider yourself lucky for having sweet caring family members to look after you. someof us arent so blessed. Thank you for your couarge and inspiration.

Don't give up!
by: Not Broken !!!!

There is not one thing I can say to make you feel better. I can only say I am so sorry that happen to you. I will say be strong and don't let them win. Maybe... talking to someone or get help. You are not at fault. You have nothing to be ashamed of. I'm been through pretty much the same. but after I got out I went through feeling it was me...but it wasn't me. That person was sick and it was all him (SO CALLED DAD). Please go for help. You are worth more then you will ever know. We feel god let us down...maybe it is to help others. I don't know...get help for yourself. You are strong and you can do this.
