Support Groups
Close Sexual Abuse
I was sexually abused by my mother between the ages of 4 to 10. My abuse was fueled by her paranoia and neurotic need to control based on her fear that sexual abuse is passed through generations. You can learn more at http://abuselessordinary.blogspot.com/
Treatments
- Talking Working / Worked
- I am going to individual counselling and it is working wonderfully. I have also created a new family and support network. I also use a 24 hour sexual abuse crisis line.
- Zoloft Not Working
- I had horrible reactions to Zoloft when I came off of it even though I weaned very slowly. It was like being a heroin addict coming off - puking, shaking, loosing alot of weight. I decided with my doctor to go off when I started having manic episodes because I was producing too much serotonin and dopamine. Zoloft helped me eliminate my symptoms and not deal with being sexually abused as a child. Now I am in counselling and my depression is lifting significantly and permanently.
- \"The Courage To Heal\" Working / Worked
Close Depression
I have suffered from Depression for most of my life - I was only diagnosed and began treatment when I was 17. I have been in and out of the hospital.
