Would it be okay to share past trauma?

okay so here is the story...I have joined a martial art club four years ago,a small club part of a traditional lineage. everyone at the club has considered one and other like extended family and I am still considered the little sister lol and over the years I have hung out with three of my fellow kung fu brothers. and one of them has been like a real brother and has shared with me his past and personal trouble stuff. recently I had a dream(I wont go into detail) that I interpreted as me realizing how I want to just trust again(was psychologically bullied). I want to share it with my closest "brother". I want to "come out of the closet" and talk about it and no longer feel like it is some secret,a shame. I want to hear from a friend I know cares about me that what I experienced was normal bullying. I want to share this and be real. is this an okay way of beginning my trust in other and especially in my kung fu brother(s)?I will write a blog about my dream if it wil help with the answe

off course that's one of the many things a close friend will do, be there to listen bottleing things up just causes a fester that will explode one day, get rid of it now with someone you trust.

If he is a close enough friend to be called a "brother" absolutely , thats what friends are for
