News of Sexual Abuse and Incest Forum

I'm not really sure where this post goes. It covers grief, sexual abuse and being scapegoated, death of my abuser, and betrayal by my entire family. I'm putting it here in the incest forum because I think that'll cause the least amount of upset for people who may not be expecting the mention of sexual abuse.
I am grieving very heavily over the loss of my entire family. My dad died a few years ago, ...

I used to post on this forum several years ago in what was then the Adult Children of Narcissists board. Back then I posted alot about the emotional/psychological abuse I went through as a kid. and my escape from my psycho family. I didn't post much about the sexual nature of some of the abuse. For one, I wasn't ready to deal with it. Secondly, the sexual abuse really was less frequent and very much ...

I'm a man in my thirties, and when I was around 5 years old, my mother allowed me to go see my father for the first time since their divorce. I was stoked and nervous to finally meet him, since he had left my mom just before I was born.

He seemed like a really friendly guy, and I opened up to him really fast. We had fun, played games, watched films etc...

But when ...

Can be tough for a lot of us as it can bring back painful memories or force us to play happy families with our abusers and enablers, but to all of us here, I hope you get through it okay, I hope there is something special you can enjoy and let's all hope for a better new year.

(Of course I am in OZ so we get Chrissy first. ...

I suspect that my wife of over 19 years his having a sexually inappropriate relationship with our biological son who is 15 years old. I'm in the military, and sometimes I'm away from home days at a time.

Can anyone provide advise as to how I can discretely investigate, and the best way to interview if something inappropriate is going on?

This is my first post on the site. I'm a male born in the early 1970's. I battle anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep disorder among other things. Been on this site a few times, but never joined officially until late night. Figured what the hell, give it a try. No one here knows me, and so far all the comments I've read are positive and helpful. I'm the youngest of 3 children. I have two ...

My husband lost his virginity when he was only 12 years old. We went to middle school together and I remember hearing the rumors about him and the girl. They grew up living next to each other and were extremely close as friends. The girl was beyond just a tom boy, she looked like, acted like and sounded like a boy.
Recently, one day I asked him how they ended up having sex; I had ...

ok so this is hard to say although I managed to come up with the courage to speak up. before I say anything, I'm a male and I was 5 years old and my memory is vivid of what happened at that age and further until I was 9, I was home schooled and I have autism and depression along with ADHD and anxiety. so, on the day of my 5th birthday my parents were ...

I feel stupid about this and that I'm making it seem bigger and worse than it actually is.

When I was 8 and 9 my friend would touch me. We're both the same age and both girls. She was the closest person at that time to me and I had no other friends. It started when she took my laptop while she was over one day and put on porn. I can still remember what ...

Once when I was a teenager, I woke up and everything was different. My whole body ached, and I was tired, exhausted actually – which was no surprise as I hadn’t been sleeping well for ages. I remember this day vividly as the start of never feeling myself again. From there a precedent was set; every day I woke feeling powerless, like something – perhaps a mystery illness was pulling me down and I couldn’t ...
