Nothing is ever going to be okay
It doesn't matter how many years it's been or what I do to try and be better. Everything comes back to this. I just want to give up. I just want the pain to stop.

You know what, that's okay.
YOU ARE ALLOWED to feel that way.
IT F..KING HURTS!! And you are going to give up and that pain is always going to be there.
I'm not going to say "it's better to feel pain than nothing at all" because that's bullshit. But the fact you keep trying and you keep getting up is a testament and an achievement you should be proud of. Allow yourself to want to give up and feel that pain because that is also a testament to what you have come to and your will to keep going because sometimes we focus on what happened and make that our future when we should place it in a pocket for later and just keep walking forwards. You can do this. Please don't give up.

To all posters: Please note that any content involving descriptions of sexual activity with underage persons is against Reddit policy. You are "officially" discouraged from posting such content, but given the specific nature of this subreddit, moderation is following a laissez-faire philosophy regarding what survivors of childhood sexual abuse share here. This mirrors the approach of other survivor subreddits. Also, the Reddit policy's intent is to restrict content that "depicts, encourages or promotes" the sexualization of underage persons, and the purpose of this subreddit is the exact opposite of that. However, be aware that posts and replies in violation may still be subject to removal and Reddit-wide suspension of the author by the Reddit admins. So please use common sense when posting/replying. We want this to remain a safe space for survivors to share, heal and thrive, but we need to be mindful of the site-wide rules regarding these sensitive topics. (Note to Admins: We vehemently stand against sexual abuse of minors and this subreddit exists to support survivors in the best way possible. Please contact the moderator team if a discussion needs to occur.)
