Close Step Families
Married a wonderful woman with two kids. One 'white' and one 'mixed' -- like me.
Close Rape
I was raped by three "friends" while passed out in my own bed. I think this attributed to my alcoholism (I'm in recovery) but I can't say for certain, after all, drinking was my choice. One of the guys has since been killed in a car accident. I was overjoyed when I heard that. I have forgiven them, however. At least I think I have. But I know this event still has ramifications in my sexual and daily life with my wife.
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
- I was at least able to admit it happened. It wasn't until Rehab that I did, though.
Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
My wife has PTSD from some events that happened while she was in the military. I would like to join, because I take her anger outbursts personally, and I need to come to an understanding of her issues. I was also gang-raped as a youth, so I think I have tendencies towards PTSD, but mine are more passive.
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- Not much. I didn't open up to my therapist.
- Rape Counseling Working / Worked
- Went to counseling. Admitted to being raped. That's about it. Rehab helped more than that did.
