I am an abused child and I subsequently entered an abusive relationship without knowing and I got abused. I'm hurt, however, I am hopeful. I know I have to deal with these issues and I'm wondering where to start. I am seeing a counselor; however, I feel like I need to see her almsost constantly.

It takes time, honey. I was emotionally and physically abused as a child. I went through 6 years of counseling for it. I was in an emotionally abusive marriage. I went through 2 years of counseling for that one, which also brought back the memories of my childhood abuse. You're doing the right thing by seeing a counselor. It does help to have a neutral listener to help you sort things out. Remember, it wasn't your fault. But, you also need to learn to recognize some of the characteristics that could end up as abuse later. Stay hopeful though. Not all men are like this.

It's hard I want though something like it and let me tell you it took a long time for me to feel better. First step is to talk as much as you need to and if you need to repeat the same thing over and over do it. For me I had to talk about the thing that happen many time it took me 4 or 5 years to deal with all the abuse I went through. I'm now 21 and I have been blessed by God. Remember your loved. talk and write or sit and think about what you really need or want.

YOU must see frequently your Therapist so that you would fully recover from it.
