Being abused ..

Ok I know it must be hard being abuse but I really do think some people play up to it MAJORLY. I know a 13 year old girl who was abused by her dad until she was 10, as well as two of he rebst friends also being abused by him. You will never meet such a "normal" little girl so to speak. She doesn't cut, doesn't self harm in any way, doesn't feel the need to talk about it and she is totally an ordinary 13 year old girl. Also her brother was also abused until he was 12 by him, he is also one of the most normal boys you will meet. Doesn't self harm, acts like a normal 16 year old should do. I know this is bound to insult and upset people but I just wanted to share that you don't have to be this depressed self harming person, I couldn't meet happier people.

Well I suppose you are right, but to me they seem incredibly genuine. Maybe I'm wrong .. this was just my opinion though .. Just stating that you don't have to self harm and scream to the world about it.

different people deal with things different ways. every situation is different. some people see something like that as a horrible depressing life ruining thing, and some see it as reason to live everyday to its fullest. it all depends on the victims perception.

Hello, I think what you posted is no offense, bull...i mean sure she could seem normal on the outside it doesnt mean that she doesnt go home day after day and cry herself to sleep or think about killing herself....people can seem happy go lucky on the outside but i mean why would anyone want to appear messed up on the outside....honestly....would you want to be friends with someone who just sat around saying she felt like shit and was soo depressed....umm no prolly not and i dont blame you i wouldnt either so then you think why would that girl go around doing it when she can feel sorry for herself later when no one is around. No one ever really knows another person...people will always remain a complete mystery to one another....i mean i can understand what you are saying but until you are abused in some way keep opinions like that to yourself bc abuse is a hard thing to go through.....sorry if i started anything....this post just really pissed me off.....

i bet those poeple who you are talking about are hiding a lot of things i bet they are depressed and u dont no it

yes, normal, and as soon as you figure it out, we can bottle it and sell it. Wait, I think they call that Ritalin.

I'm 100% with vix. I've suffered pretty much every kind of abuse known (dramatic but, uh, true), though since memory can sometimes make merciful deletions, the sexual abuse by my friend is scant. Wouldn't hold up in court. And, yeah, I'm the same way. when it comes to my dad, who has given me, our family, his co-workers etc a lifetime of emotional abuse, I can laugh and joke and talk about it openly no problem. But, that's also because I know I'm not the only one who has to deal with him.

I'll joke and laugh about the sexual harassment I've gotten used to getting from guys. Mostly because I find it pathetic enough to be funny. I can't, won't, haven't yet spoken openly about the sex abuse named above. It happened a long time ago. I drop hints. 'obvious' hints. but when I try to elaborate, my mouth gets all dry and I have to close it again.

but I'm usually a happy, nice seeming type. People say I'm very approachable. I have never been called normal. I think I'd fall in love with the first person who does. but, yeah, these kids, people deal with abuse differently. Abuse is tricky, if it happens enough it can harden you completely (and not in the prefered perverted way hee, hee). This girl may seem really happy, but it's not likely how she really feels. Talk to her.
