What do you do when the person who is always suppose to take care of you and always have your side doesnt believe you? Well there really isnt anything we can do but just stay strong and know that what happened to us did in fact happen. Again i say find someone or some place where people can relate to what you been through and will believe you. We have to stick together and take a stand. It sucks when no one believes you. Trust me. Im at that place myself. But i know what i been through and i thank GOD i found groups that i have support from and found great friends from those groups as well. as well as friends from church. Once you find those people break the silence and speak out to them. Dont be afraid of what people will say or think about you. Its not our faults. We may feel ashamed and disgusted. And its natural to feel that way. But we cant let those feeling have control on our lives. We will never be able to move forward and be set free. Take a stand and SPEAK!

This past week, we talked a lot about needing validation from our abusers, needing some word that they know what they did was wrong. In all of our discussion, a couple of us came to a place where we know that we will never have that validation, and we can work to get to a place where we don't need it. There is strength and freedom in not needing your abuser to admit what he/she did to you. You are stronger in yourself with the knowledge that you did experience abuse, and you can move forward having the power to heal even without any admission from your abuser. In a sense you take the power back. That is definitely something I am going to work towards.
