To be completely honest, I'm a little nervous about participating in this community. I've spent some time reading a few posts and everyone seems pretty kind and genuine. Obviously enough to get me to post this! So anyway, about me..
My name is Chad. I grew up in a home where my dad sexually abused my sisters and I for about 8 years. I spent all my time from then until this last January convincing myself I wasn't affected by it. Unfortunately, every facet of my life has been. Everything from my platonic and romantic relationships to my success (or rather, lack thereof) with my post-secondary education. Even my ability to maintain employment. So, as of January, I decided that I wanted to fix things and get my life back. I've been going in for group therapy, as well as one-on-one since then. In that time, I've learned and grown a lot. The entire process has been very unnerving, but I know in the end it'll be worth the price.
I really look forward to meeting you guys and learning from your experiences. In turn, I hope I can help you grow through mine. Thank you for taking your time to read this.
