Rep Power: 0 | |  I was sexually molested by my mom's boyfriend....
When i was 11 i was molested by my mom’s 40 year old boyfriend. It went on until i was 14. I was scared of him and if i told he said he would get me mom in trouble or hurt her. He would give my mom things to make her pass out or she would leave and he would mess with me. Eventually he raped me. My mom kept allowing him around even when i went to the law and he wasn't supposed to be. Because of this i do not feel comfortable with myself. I have a really low self esteem and don't like being exposed to a lot of ppl. I need help. How can i get over this and enjoy being a teenager?

First of all, know your not alone...
272,350 Americans were sexually assaulted last year.
Take a quick look at these statistics: http://www.rainn.org/statistics
Consider seeking counseling: http://apps.rainn.org/ohl-bridge/

Hello ddkelley
First, I would like to let you know that you are NOT at fault. The acts of violence that you went through were done by a very selfish person who took advantage of you because you were young.
I agree with everyone else here, you should indeed seek a rape crisis center for a support group. most centers offer weekly groups for victims that are dealing with a rape or molestation that happened years ago.
If you need some assistance finding a place, leave me an email and include your city. Car Accident Attorney Denver | | Domain Names Sponsor |  | |
