I was abused as a child by my father. I am not asking for pity or I am sorry that happened to you. Please do not say those things to me. Though I bet you mean well its 16 years in the past. I am a survivor. I have to wake up every morning reminding myself I won. I look, act and can even speak like I am strong but even a gust of negative wind can still send me swirling into depression. I am writing this post because as once a victim I thought I had to be ashamed. I was wrong. Just because I admit what has happened to me in my past with a straight face doesnt mean my insides are not turned into knots. It means I am learning to accept my past and what happened to me then made me this beautiful and strong person i am today. If you know someone or is someone who is being abused turning your head the other way is saying you accept it. Do not accept it! If you know someone that was abused being there for them in their darkest and their brightest times and reminding them that there is nothing wrong with them and none of it was their fault can make the biggest difference. *I linked this video to this song because it reminds me of how I felt when I told my mom what was going on. She saved me from my father.
