Whoa, okay... Had apparently skipped over that last paragraph while being distracted at work the other day... Jesus, dude... I'm an ass...

Honestly, take my advice with a grain of salt because I've never been through sexual abuse before, but in my own life, I have found that counseling others has helped me cope and make sense of my own personal plate of traumatic experiences.

Believe it or not, you don't have to have your own **** figured out in order to help other people through their ****; it's easier from the outside looking in because there is a level of emotional dissonance that enables you to reason more efficiently. In fact, helping others is a great technique for teaching yourself the skills of how to help yourself. It not only empowers your confidence through purpose, but also (in my experience) is much more effective than therapy because in a therapeutic setting, you are STILL playing the role of victim, which can be counterintuitive to pulling yourself out of the vicious cycle of victimhood.

It's worth a shot
