I am currently a 21 year old wife and mother of 2 and I have really been thinking lately about my past. When I was 9 I was repeatedly raped by my brother for 2 1/2 years. I never told anyone until I was 16, but by that time my parents had gotten a divorce and my brothers were staying with my mom. I never told anyone cause I felt so ashamed, I mean I was only 9 at the time. My brother was about 13 or 14 when he started raping me and my husband doesn't understand why when he tries to be rough with me in bed it brings back horrible times. There are sometimes when I accept it, but I need help. How do I get over such a tramatizing and hurtful thing? How can I just let go everything and let everything else fall into place? I still do talk to my brother cause he apologized and I accepted, but I can not talk to him for long. I say Hi and that is it. What do I do?
