writes:I was molested when I was around 10-11 years old by an older cousin. I've never really talked to anyone about it but now that I am older I am reading alot about molestation and rape. By the way I grew up in a third world country and didn't know anything about molestation. My family moved to the US when I was 13. Because I was molested as a child do you think this is the reason why I can't hold a relationship?

I was molested as a child too. I was 12 and by an older cousin too. I guess i blocked out all the details about what happened and only after the birth of my second child everything just came gushing back like the wind.I was depressed and wanted nothing to do with my husband. He suggested therapy and at first of course i refused because i thought no-one could help me. My hubby was very patient with me, and after weeks of convincing me i finally went.
I feel like a new person who just found the real meaning of life. The pig that abused me is no longer an aspect in my life. I simply just refuse to let him take over my life, my thoughts and who i really was. i have a new lease on life and have been enjoying with my hubby and children.
I think you should do the same or at least try to. Therapy really, really helps.
i wish you strength,happiness and love!!!!!
