Hi
Have only really started posting this week, but have lurked for years (have only just learned to deal with feeling shy about it).
I was sexually abused as a child, but only 'remembered' last Feb. Since then my feelings about my body and desires has gone from happy, open and comfortable, to disgust and shame.
Any other victims of abuse who have felt like this out there? Will I feel like this forever?
I'm in therapy but I just cannot see me getting over this feeling of distaste or repugnance when it comes to my own body and sexuality. It's really testing my marriage.
