    Ok.

    Let me share some psychology 101 stuff with you.

    A. Background

    About eight years ago I started mentoring / counselling men who had been sexually abused in their childhood. This had led to secretive behaviours on their part, and then addictions.

    My hearing of the harm done to these men led me to wonder how wide spread it might be.

    My looking at web sites, discussions with therapists, and confidential discussions with men and women who were sexual abuse survivors continued for several years.

    Now I am not a trained therapist.

    No, I was not sexually abused myself. My childhood was very disruptive because we moved around many times, and we left the USA when I was 13. Lived in Switzerland, then Hong Kong, then Phillippines. So I was messed up.

    But enough of me.

    Any questions.....just ask.

    B. Cutting

    There are a number of web sites, like EP, where people who cut can visit.

    Www.sandf.org is one of them. It has a section for cutters, for partners of cutters and another as I recall for parents. In most cases there is a high correlation between sexual abuse (rape, ******, hyper sexual activity prepuberty or early puberty).

    The creator of the above site as I recall is a Dutch woman who herself is a survivor.

    You can create a profile on there and converse with others who have your patterns of behaviour, who have found tools to stop and stay stopped,and others who can't stop cutting.

    Any questions on this just ask.

    C. Therapy

    There are in many countries counsellors who run group sessions in confidence for survivors.

    One of the men I mentored on "healthy friendships" has found such a group here in Australia and asserts its been helpful to him.

    I am not telling you to get a therapist, just suggesting when you are ready you might.

    Any questions....just ask me.

    Take care. Be well.

    I can't send you a private message due to your age.

    If you send me one it gets around this site restriction as I recall.

    This is to prevent harm to younger members of EP.

      OK the bad things that i have done are, i lost my virginity when i was 13, i haven't been able to have a good relationship because once i get attached they leave and they only use me for sex. so i started on drugs and alcohol and i got real bad on cutting myself. and the ways i have stopped are i go for good guys now and i stopped the drugs and drinking on my own, but i am still working on the cutting.
