When I was 13, I was molested by my brother in law. I was scared to death to tell because I was afraid nobody would believe me and that I would not be allowed to see my little nieces ever again. As the years went by, I resented him more and more. Eventually, I wanted to stop going to all family functions and my Mom pushed me for answers as to why. I finally told her, got therapy, and eventually told my sister. In the past 4 years, I have been going to family stuff and feeling horrible. He is at everything. Recently, I left a party early because I simply don't want to be around him. In addition to the anxiety I feel about him, my 4 siblings are much older than me and I have never felt like I fit in. My sister asked me why I left and I said it is because I feel uncomfortable around the family and I feel bad being around my molester. She said I need therapy and that I act like I am 14 because my son and I have been living with my parents for 7 years. I feel strongly that I am not wrong.
