new and living with shadows and ghosts of my wife's sexual abuse
Hi All.
I live with my wife and our four children, we have been together for 18yrs, within that time 13 of those years have seen us having to deal with and come to terms with my wife finally admiting she was sexually, physically and emotionally abused throughout her childhood, (from just 6 yrs old through to her 17th birthday)
We are both survivors and though we love each other more than words could ever say, when we get together in the bedroom things usually go end up.
I have come here to seek advice and guidance, I have supported a number of other survivors on various websites, but the survivor sites are not the right places to air my views on my own situation as they all looked towards me for support.
It is my time to seek support and hopefuly by coming here find understanding for my own situation.
I hope I have come to the right place.
I will explain soon but for now I just need to know that I am in the right place with people that could understand my situation and not judge me for my own feelings and upset, (am i trying to save my own marriage or my own sanity ???) not a question easily answered.
Respect and Friendship
