I Had Something Taken From Me I Cant Get Back

Dear Old Dad...
When I was a little boy, about 7 years old, my father took my virginity by force.

Along with that, he took my peace of mind, my childhood, my self confidence, my happiness, and my sanity.   Thanks Pop!

(Sarcasm intended)

I struggle with this, as I have only recently "come out of the closet" with my incest story.  I have trouble with day to day tasks, I struggle with sleep, I have no self confidence, and I am always depressed despite zoloft and welbutrin.  I wish all those abusers out there could really understand everything they take from their victims and could see how large the black empty void is that they create in people's lives.

I love the name of this group. I totally sums up what happens after child sexual abuse. The big black cloud that comes into the child's life, the void, the damage in so many ways that affect self image, confidence and concentration; that huge piece of the puzzle that is missing where affirmation, security and love should be. Thank you for writing about your experience; you've done a great job, and I continue to read your stories with interest and prayerful compassion.
