Even tho this material is upsetting, it is very helpful for me to read and relate to. It's "normalizing." As I read the various descriptions, I am nodding, "Uh huh," and feeling more validated and less alone.Thank you for giving me a forum to express this unspeakable stuff. Sometimes it's hard for me to feel comfortable around other ppl b/c they have NO clue about the horrors of my past, and if they ever did find out, I'd be shunned (to say the least).
