In Pain and Sexually Abused

Every day children, teens, and women are sexually abused by someone they know. It is a devastating experience. It rips a part their souls, and they are in very much pain emotionally, and spiritually. It is a very dark place. They didn't ask to be violated, some one just chose to steal their innocence.

I can't tell you how many stories I've heard, or read about concerning sexual abuse. It's a very sad story every time I hear it. Some of them were raped by their parents, relatives, or friends. Some times they ave been raped by a stranger.

It is disturbing to know that another person can take it upon themselves to destroy another person's soul for their own self gratification. They brain wash the children and teens into thinking they are being loved, and that is normal for a mother or father to abuse them. The honestly believe this is okay, and love their parents any way. They don't understand that their parents are actually hurting them. They are confused, and don't know how to process this information. They want to hurt themselves because they are screaming inside because their mother's don't stand up for them, or believe them.

They let the abuse continue on, and don't leave with their children till it's to late and foster care takes them in if they are lucky enough to have someone report the abuse, or the child, or teen had enough courage to report it to a teacher, pastor, counselor, or parent, relative or friend. Most of the time they never do tell someone. They carry it around inside of them. They internalize it. They know it don't feel good, and they know it doesn't feel right. They are waiting for it to stop.

They usually are struggling with it inside. They feel dirty, and disgusting, and they can't make the pain go away or stand in the shower trying to wash it off. Only it doesn't come off. They don't know how to cope with it, because they are so young. So they start cutting themselves, and try and attempt suicide. They some times succeed and other times they don't.

Women are often raped in college dorm rooms and frat houses while they are drugged with GHB, or given alcohol, and gang raped. Some times they are raped by one individual. Other women are raped by friends they thought they could trust, and knew their whole lives.

It is always the same aftermath, pain, and solutions no matter what age they are. They have lost their innocence and worth. Sometimes they are pregnant and carry a baby for 9 months and have to have this child as a daily reminder of being raped. Some of them give the child up, and others keep it. If they keep the child they take out all their anger and pain out on the child, and if they were abused by their parents, they abuse their children, because that is what they were taught to do.

Other women are raped by a complete stranger in attack in parking lots, hotels, bars, and places they go with their friends, or by themselves.

We will never understand why sexual predators choose to violate their victims. Some times even killing them. It is a vicious act, and you wonder if they even have a soul. There is no excuse for it, and it does so much damage to another human being.

If you know someone is being abused than please report it. You could be the one to stop the violence, and get the victim help and counseling. You could even end up saving their lives. Please don't worry about whether some one will find out. If you call your local State protective services you can report it anonymously and it will be investigated. If you stand there and watch it, you are just as guilty for not doing anything.

If you know someone that has been raped, do not blame them for the way they dressed, or for wearing make up, or say they asked for it with their words or actions. It is not their fault. They are not to blame. They were violated, and they already blame themselves and go around and around in their mind whether they said or did something to instigate it.

They are often no one will listen to them or believe them. They are afraid of anyone knowing. They are ashamed of who they are.

If you have been raped, please call the Police and report it. Do not wash yourself or take a shower till you go to the hospital and get an exam and a test kit to provide the evidence to press charges against the offender. Please tell someone about the situation.

If you are a child please report it to your teacher, a principle, a guidance counselor, or pastor. Tell someone or anyone that you know will get you help and stop the abuse.
