i need help *SA

my current problem...i've just told my family/cops about my childhood abuse from my mom's ex. he's not in my life anymore. can you guys share some feelings about pressing charges? i want to but it feels a lot easier to just avoid the whole thing, i need someone to push me to do the right thing..

i don't know what some good advice would be...i find that the same thing happens to me. when we start talking about something that's just too hard to face, i dissociate so that i can remain in the conversation but don't have to feel it or really really think about it... :-?

it's hard and it sucks and hurts to try to talk about things you've never spoken to someone you don't even know...but it helps. they help you figure your shit out, at least for me. i don't think it could hurt

i'm sorry things are so tough...i can relate you would think I would just come to my senses and eat in a perfect world, yeah you might be able to do that. but in a perfect world, ed's wouldn't exist..neither would si, or all the pain and confusion behind these things. don't be so hard on yourself......

that sounds really easy. if it were that easy, i don't think ed's would exist... that advice is probably better for just like the average person...you know, love yourself the way you are. but if someone sat me down and told me those things seriously, i'd laugh in their face. ed's are soooo much more...
