[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. Repeated CSA by a family member, alcoholic father, deceased sibling, divorced parents, lower middle class (i.e., we always had enough to eat but parents had to put one paycheck to the lights and the other one to the phone, couldn’t pay both at once).

I’m honestly good. Just celebrated 20th wedding anniversary, raising two boys with some challenges but we’re hanging in there, attended college (mine is first generation to graduate from college) and graduate school, have a good job.

I [b]couldn’t say why I’m ok except I don’t remember much of my childhood [/b]and don’t think about it much. Both parents are deceased, so no reminders there. My siblings and I get along well, except 1 who is a little odd and standoffish.

Good luck finding peace, OP. Keep trying different things, maybe some even more than once.9[/quote]
I was like you until I remembered. It was overwhelming and nearly ruined me. Thankfully, I drew strength from the life and family I created. I am processing and managing the emotions on my own and am doing well. If I could survive what I did as a child and young teen, my adult self can handle the emotional fallout from those experiences.[/quote]
