Molested?

Question

Anyone else feel like they've been molested at a young age? The older I get the more I keep having memories. None of which where I was actually molested. I remember being in a basement of an apartment with my moms friends son. I was maybe 5, him maybe 10-12? I was uncomfortable. Then him also peeking at me in the bathroom. Something just feels off. I get an almost sick and disgusting feeling when thinking of it. Am I just crazy?

Answer

Sounds crazy but probably not.  Apparently I was and don't remember.  "Repressed memory"  I don't know about you.  But I hope it stays that way.

Answer

This is very common unfortunately. People can get raped or molested as a child but repress it for a long time until the memory is somehow triggered and brought up again.

Answer

First of all, you are not crazy. Now, when someone is abused or molested, especially kids, the brain conpresses the horrible memories of this happening for various obvious reasons, and after time, even years, some of these memories might start to come back. I'm no expert, at all, but i would suggest that if you keep having these memories, go to a social worker or therapist for assistance.

Answer

I was but I never not remembered. To this day I remember everything even the feeling in my stomach.

Answer

I was molested as a child. I didn't really remember it until I was 16 & drunk one day. My friend told me that she was raped and I was drunk & started balling cause all these memories came back. It honestly made me really depressed & things were starting to make sence . It's crazy that I repressed that memory but sometimes I do wonder if it really happened too. The memories are faint but are there. Sometimes I wonder "did this really happen? Are these real?" I still struggle with this lol. I wish there was a way to clarify it you know. But just know that your not alone !! If you need to talk to someone about this, even tho we're strangers, I'm here . 💞

Answer

Yes, I keep having memories of my 7 y/o self questioning whether something my body was doing was caused by being touched. At that age I had no idea about sex or sexual touching so I don't understand why I'd repeatedly have that thought. Now that I'm older, I have a really hard time being intimate with someone. I just tense up. Guess I'll never know.

Answer

I feel that way, I know something happened to me when I was 3-4 and I know who did it, but its all a blurry memory. I went to see a therapist about something totally unrelated, and he asked me about any trauma in my past ( I guess a standard question) When I told him about my abuse he asked how I knew and I said I just know. Its not something that I carry with me or that really affects me.
