What to do if you were sexually harassed as a child?

I have a question on a more serious note. If you were sexually harassed as a child but have no supporting evidence to prove it, what would you do? Is it better to find some form of closure, is there something that could be done? I'm just interested in your thoughts and serious answers. Thanks for your time~

You need closure. It depends on what happened as to what can e done now. There are degrees of seriousness when it comes to sexualy harrasssed. If you want to chat in private feel free to message me. I have been thorugh sexual harrassment too.

Is there a way to talk about it without giving too many details?

@JaneDoe: Yes, only tell what you want to tell.
I would suggest seeing a therapist. Sexual abuse (of any kind) as a child subplants itself in ways you cannot imagine. Guilt, shame, etc. They will help you find YOUR closure. ☺

Closure comes from within, when you allow the healing. Many think confronting will do it but can make it worse as an abuser will mostly deny.

It varies from person to person. Personally I just forgave them and decided that if I let it affect me they would win so I just moved on with my life

As much counseling as you need. For me telling anyone else causes them to pity you which is the worst feeling in the world.

Been through that, before the days of counseling. Had to deal with it & get on with life.
