I don't want anything out of this except to have hopefully helped someone with my experiences. Don't worry about whether you will be able to talk like this in the future. It's not the solution for everyone and you shouldn't put pressure on yourself to deal with it in any other way than you have been.Prudencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03857546622091578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-49069909398000045322009-12-05T17:41:31.732-08:002009-12-05T17:41:31.732-08:00You can certainly rest assured that your writings ...You can certainly rest assured that your writings do help people. Although in my case I never got what I believed was true justice resulting in a conviction I take some comfort that in making my complaint that it may help someone in the future if he ever abuses anyone again, or that (hopefully) he'll never ever do it again having been through the whole experience. Who knows what will happen?<br /><br />I hope that maybe one day I'll be able to open up in the way you have, albeit in a place where you have anonimity. It's a very helpful blog to read even if I don't feel ready to talk in the way you have yet.<br /><br />Thank you, ElizaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-66027519050133053842009-11-17T05:20:59.031-08:002009-11-17T05:20:59.031-08:00Oops I meant "cosmic"Oops I meant "cosmic"Prudencenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-19799009882203429622009-11-17T05:20:15.671-08:002009-11-17T05:20:15.671-08:00Eliza, thanks for your support and it's good t...Eliza, thanks for your support and it's good to know that I'm laying all my truth out there for some benefit. We can't undo what has been done to us, but if we can help others then it at least has come cosmis meaning doesn't it?<br /><br />The ability to publish anonymously and to comment anonymously I think should result in so many stories being told and people finding unthreatening ways to tell these painful truths. I'm so pleased I decided to do this and to publish here. I just wish I had more time to visit all the sites I follow and to let more people know about my writings here.Prudencenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-57159456515126638062009-11-16T16:52:13.521-08:002009-11-16T16:52:13.521-08:00Hi Prudence, thanks for your reply and contact I d...Hi Prudence, thanks for your reply and contact I do appreciate it. It is good to see you and others being able to write about your experiences and thoughts, it is so helpful to others who have been through similar situations and takes courage to speak out. It's important for every victim to find their voice and speak out as that's an important step on the journey of coming to terms with what has happened. I'm sure many others will find reassurance from your writing.<br /><br />Respect and best wishes,<br />ElizaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-68937560949737041492009-11-04T14:37:18.180-08:002009-11-04T14:37:18.180-08:00Hi Eliza,

But this is an unusually high level of activity!<br /><br />I'm sorry to hear that you have been a victim and that you are struggling to get over it.<br /><br />Hopefully you'll find some resolution here and elsewhere on your travels. Please feel free to ask me anything or to contact me here or by email (prudence157@googlemail.com). But don't be offended if I don't reply much, I really don't get a lot of time on here and I only come to this blog and to that email account when I'm in a mood to be able to cope with the thinking involved about this particular subject matter.Prudencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03857546622091578812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-38425821433786414352009-11-03T16:54:14.811-08:002009-11-03T16:54:14.811-08:00Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings o...Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings on your experience. I found your page through the Psychologies forum.<br /><br />I too have been a victim and am struggling with dealing with what happened. I've felt a strong sense of isolation and blame on myself, yet it is reassuring to hear your fears are similar.<br /><br />Thank you, <br />ElizaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-78555282298792680982009-10-29T01:00:06.632-07:002009-10-29T01:00:06.632-07:00Hi - thanks Liz.

I noticed you started to follow my blog, although I've not had a chance to come over to explore yours yet.<br /><br />You are right that it is helping writing down all these things, even if it's just being able to have one version of the stuff which swims around my head, to then work on it.<br /><br />Also it's important to get people's opinions and support, to feel like I am a bit more normal in my reactions and in having these problems in the first place.<br /><br />Thanks so much :-)Prudencenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5459132602813393612.post-28471112965653290902009-10-28T14:46:46.399-07:002009-10-28T14:46:46.399-07:00Dear Prudence

I have never been raped, but I have counselled rape survivors and what I know without shadow of a doubt is that you need to remember that you are a SURVIVOR. <br /><br />Your survival of that dreadful event will undoubtedly remain a long struggle - and whether 14 days, 14 months or 24 years - it will always need a strength of character that I can just feel coming from you through your blog. <br /><br />I hope that writing your blog helps you explore your feelings and whilst I won't 'look forward' to reading it, I am here for you and if I can be of any support as well - then here I am......<br /><br />Thoughts are with you, <br /><br />Liz xLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13555494469629782198noreply@blogger.com
