Hi
This is my 1st post and I’m really struggling with a memory that came back to me year ago.....
I remembered an incident that occurred between my brother and me. There are 18 months between us. At the age of 6,7or 8.... I can’t remember exactly, basically I naked dry humped him.
The memory is so vague, but I remember him saying “I don’t want to” and that was it I stopped. Never did it before or since it was quite literally 20-30 seconds of my life.
I hadn’t thought about it for decades. It popped into my head a year ago (I’m in my 30’s now).
I confronted my brother and told him I was sorry that I ever did that to him. He laughed and said it was a normal thing that a lot of kids/siblings experience. I’ve confessed to both my mum and my husband, they think I’m worrying unessecarily and have both divulges their own weird childhood experiences.
When I was a child a few things happened to me, I was touched inappropriately and treated sexually by my uncle from a young age, I don’t know whether this is why I did what I did. Also I had other friends from my age group act inappropriately with me and teach me things regarding sex. I don’t know whether this is why I did. In my head I feel like I am a terrible person who doesn’t deserve to be alive. But I don’t know whether I’m confusing what I feel about what my uncle (an adult) did and projecting those feelings on my child self.
Any input gratefully received... I am literally driving myself nuts!!
Thanks for reading
