You are the same age as my daughter. But she has a lot farther to go. She still doesn't want to think or talk about the abuse, which, for now, I think is a good thing since the alternative to stuffing it seems to be cutting, suicide attempts and psychosis. She is getting a bit better but she is like a broken pot that has been put together with not enough glue. As long as she doesn't try to do much the glue holds but as soon as you add any stress she falls apart. I don't know what else we can do to help her. I hope that with time she will be able to have some sort of nrmal life.
It's good to hear you are determined to move forward. Almost every victim I have spoken to has said that eventually they did move forward, although the abuse was like a ball and chain they have to carry around forever. If you can somehow get rid of the ball and chain I think that's wonderful. I think the most important thing for victims to realize is that by focussing on their abuser/abuse they are actually continuing where the abuser left off. So you are still allowing the abuser to control and hurt you. We have the right to be angry but make that anger constructive. There is an old saying "The best revenge is to live well."
