A Safe Place to Post

I have been looking for a safe place to post about my feelings associated with the sexual abuse I suffered as a child... and how those feelings sometimes bring me so low that I want to hurt myself even more. They cause me to hate myself so much sometimes. I feel used, unclean, etc...
However, I have not found a group to post in.
I understand this is a Taboo topic. No one wants to talk about it. However, I know, from personal experience, talking sometimes helps. It helps to not have to lock everything so deep inside. That is why I have created a group in the community section. I want it to be a safe place for people to go and discuss their feelings... and how those feelings sometimes get in our way of living a healthy life. We are all here to better ourselves... and sometimes that process includes having to understand the reasoning behind what we do to harm ourselves -- even if that is by eating. I hope this group can help others.

It hurts my heart that you have suffered abuse in any form at any time in your life. You are deserving of as much as anyone else. There is always hope. May you find peace and healing and love.0
