    Talk in broad terms at first: “Something happened to me in the past that is difficult for me to discuss.” Test their interest level: “I’d like to share more with you, but I want to know if you’re interested in learning about it.” Tell them what you need: “Since this is a sensitive subject for me, I’ll need your understanding and support in hearing about it. Does that sound okay to you?” Reveal the details of the abuse gradually, as it seems safe: “I was molested by someone.” “My uncle molested me.” “My uncle had oral sex with me.”

    By acknowledging abuse, you can recognize the experience of sexual abuse as part of your life history and can learn to use it as a source of strength. By acknowledging sexual abuse, you take back power and can begin doing something about the past. When you share the story of the abuse with others, you can do it with your chin held high. You are no longer a victim. You are a survivor, becoming a thriver.

    Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.

    You can repair the damage done to you in the past. You can look forward to a new surge of self-respect, personal contentment, and emotional intimacy. When you reclaim your sexuality, you reclaim yourself.
