Sup

Hey, I am a 19 year old male and I was molested by my cousin when I was 7, he was 10. At time it happened I was very confused and its only now I have noticed the repercussions. My childhood memories have been repressed for years and few of them resurfaced after reading the book, Victims No Longer by Mike Lew, I began to put some of the experiences in my life in perspective. Growing up I had major bouts of depression while lacking of self-esteem which am still recovering from. I would be isolated from my friends and parents majority of the time (still do),had trust issues and hard time opening up to people especially girls who like me but unconsciously I'll push them away. I feel completely detached from my emotions and trying to get them back to norm. I have not told anyone and just wanted some where to share my story, get it of my chest and move on from it.
