One of the best ways to overcome, or to understand an experience as severe as sexual abuse, is to open yourself up to the pain that others have experienced. Unfortunately, many of us must learn from the pain of others, but there is hope for the future. It takes a lot to share such a personal experience.
I'd like to thank those of you who have shared with me, even those of you who requested that I do not post your stories. Coming out with it is very difficult.
