I too was molested as a child, by a step parent. I became a better person for it and you will too. It made me a more compasionate person and it will you too. You can't blame yourself for what happened. Try volunteering to help kids that have been through the same thing you have been. It's very healing to know that you can help from your hurt. I can also say it has made me a more aware parent. I have 2 kids and I can almost sense when a pedophile is around, I know the true signs, I know the behaviors to look for. You will do this!

OP= thanks all. To the last poster- great advice. I have 3 kids myself and I'm like you- can almost smell a pedophile.

Just a question to the three people who voted "down": what negative thing could you possibly see in this?

It's a shame that we drag our bad experiences with us, drag them around daily, let them define us, no one else is bothered or worried about them...they love us for who we are right now...today...let them go, it's so freeing and you'll have so much more room in your heart for love than sorrow.

I get really tired of hearing these sob stories. My Dad died when I was nine and my Mom blew her brains out when I was ten. I found her. That is their problem, not mine. I made a success of my life regardless of their choices.

^agreed. You make your life, life doesn't make you. I was also abused for years by my step dad. It hurt, and honestly sometimes it still hurts but it pushes me harder and harder to be a better person. It get's better only when you make it better and stop playing victim. No one is going to give a shit, wear thicker skin and live your life bro.

Good for you! Getting free from the prison of unforgiveness is the best thing you will ever do for yourself... Your abuser may not deserve your forgiveness, but letting go, seeking healing, and being free is about you. And YOU DESERVE it!

You can do it. Forgive yourself as you were only a child. Glad you are getting help.Be happy and share it with others.
