Have you been sexually molested?

As a child or an adult and if you have, how did affected you ?

Answer:
yes, when I was 10 yo. by my female cousin who was 18. I didn't do anything to me mentally, but I do not have nothing to do with this person anymore.
Yes, by a male babysitter when I was 6. It's hard to say how it affected me. I don't think about it very much, but have had problems with depression most of my life. Is it connected? who knows.
no
no thank God.
Yes I was sexually molested as a child. It has affected me in, I guess, a negative way because my abuser was a drunk and a cocaine user. I am not trusting of anyone who drinks or abuses drugs excessively. I am also very weary of any man that comes into contact with my children. I never told my husband about what happend to me until about 10 years after we were married and had our kids. I sub-consciencely didn't trust him alone with our kids, especially our daughter. I would come home unexpectedly for lunch or leave work early on days I knew he would be alone with them for fear the same would be happening to them. I still live with the fear that they will become victims. My niece once called me and told me she had a secret to tell, but was afraid to tell her mom. I reassured her I was there for her and not to be afraid. She told me a friend of her's was being abused by her uncle. I feared my niece was referring to herself, but in the end it was really a friend who being abused. I convinced her to tell my sister and she did. Then I talked to my sister(also a victim) and reminded her that whatever the outcome she had to tell school officials and the parents of the girl. My niece's friend was very upset with her for telling, but later she and her parents gave my niece flowers and thanked her for being brave enough to do the right thing even if she was to scared to.
I was told recently that a friend of mine was molested by her step-father. She said nothing. She said her mother knew something was wrong. Each time her mother went to the store Mary would want to go along with her, but her mothermade her stay with her step-father.As soon as the mpother left he would have sex with her. She said it started about ten years of age. I have not seen this person until recently for 40 years. Yes her step-father lived across the street from me, and my family. Sorry I can't go on, as her step dad was my best friend. Thank the Lord he is on his last, or next to last breath. I told some friends, and now they hate me. It took her cousins to verify that these facts did happen.
Why are people nuts?
no just physical and emotional.
Yes by my father. It has affected me in being able to trust others. It has affected me emotionally because I think do about. But I don't let it eat me up everyday and actually still love my father and have forgiven him and he is part of my life yet.
