As a childhood sexual abuse survivor, myself, I understand your pain, struggles, and internalized despair. I am SO grateful you didn't let your abuser 'win' by believing all the lies, and that you found your true nature, once again, in therapy. It took me thousands of dollars, and 10 years of therapy, for the burden of hatred I carried to be miraculously lifted. I was eventually able to forgive the sinner, but not the sin. Forgiveness was the best gift I gave myself, because the hatred was only killing me, and not doing anything to my perpetrator. Blessings as we continue to heal. It's NEVER too late to have a happy childhood!
