View Full Version : For A Broken Soul [warning: emotionally heavy material]

On behalf of A Broken Soul, a friend of mine and fellow member of MW (but can't access MW right now) has been having trouble at home. Her father is a drunk and abuses her. Recently, however, he has also taken to abusing her sexually recently, first with passes on her, and gradually getting worse.
A Broken Soul got away from the situation, but it's still heavily on her mind. She could use any energy you can send her, as well as any advice on dealing with sexual abuse from a parent, as it's on her mind now whenever she's alone. If you have any advice, please send it to me (I'll pass it on) or to her e-mail address, which you can find on her profile.
Thanks in advance!

she needs to get out, or report him.
.
She needs to get out AND report him. I know this is easier said than done. The first step is to put herself out of harm's reach, which I think you have said she has done already. (If not, try to encourage her to stay with friends or even in a hostel for a short while).
If her parents live together she could try speaking to her mother although she may not want to believe her and, to be honest, it is best to have geographical and emotional distance between her and 'the problem'.
If she has brothers or sisters it is highly possible that they may have suffered the same abuse or might be suffering now. So eventually the only solution is to involve the police and welfare authorities.
She needs to be reassured that she has done nothing wrong; there is no excuse whatsoever for the way her father has behaved, but her father is highly inlikely to change his ways without some form of intervention.
I will keep her in my prayers and send her some protective energy. :hugz:

as difficult as it is, she really should report it. Not just for her own safety but for anyone else he chooses as a victim. I know it's very difficult to think about breaking up a family, and the guilt that goes along with reporting something like this but she's obviously a strong girl, she's already told at least one person - you.
It is not her fault and she has done nothing wrong. She needs to be reminded of that.
As far as it being on her mind whenever she's alone now... this very well be the beginnings of ptsd or anxiety problems. She should seek help if possible. If she can tell a counselor, they will help her work through those problems now so they don't get worse. Plus, if she doesn't report before she starts seeing a counselor, telling the counselor may help make it easier and the counselor can also give advice and help her through the process of reporting.
:hugz: i'm sending lots of hugs, and inner strength to her

Thank you all for caring and your advice. :)
She's out of home, yes, and lives elsewhere now. A Broken Soul has already talked to her mother, but she didn't believe her.
I'm trying to get her to go to the police, in case he should be liable to try this again, with her or others.
I'll pass the entire message on, Cassie, when she gets back from her job.

Man when I opened this thread the energy that came off it made me want to pull away from the computer it was just that strong . And I as started reading I just felt mad. I am so sorry to read that she is going through this.
As some one who has been in her position with my own father( The sexual abuse) I can just just imagine how she feels. I agree with the others Report him and make sure she gets a restraining order or something in place so that he cannot come near her with out having consequences to deal with. Also getting a social worker involved if there are other children in the home or even just to help her would be also a good thing to do.
Also the counselor or someone who is trained in dealing with sexual abuse cases ( such as a counselor from Victims service's or sexual abuse center) can help her with making her report to the police as well as help her deal with this situation and support her when this goes to court ... But she needs to go make that first step ...
Please let her know that She is in my prayers and thoughts, and if she ever needs to talk to someone who has been in her position she can email me or pm me here when she can get back here ok?
Also as for the mom not believing her well I can relate to that to except in my case it was my stepmom.... Fear and denial are not good things .....

I think that, now that she is physically away from the situation, the best thing to do is to talk to someone that is able to handle this, such as a counselor or therapist. It will be best for her to try and start healing while this is "fresh", so that she can minimize the effects and damage with coping mechanisms that will help her NOW rather than later.
Also, if there are other children in the house, DEFINITELY report him, whether the mom believes or not. It is the best thing she can do for the other kids.
Sending strength to help get her through this. :hugz:

Much love and sympathy for Broken, let her know there are candles lit for her, and for justice. As for reporting her father, she needs to understand that just because she got away doesn't mean he will stop. For her own safety, and for any others he takes a liking to, as the others said, she will need to file her story with the cops. I'm sorry about her moms, who I'm sure has some demons of her own going on. No one should abuse or abandon their child like that. She has our love and support.

She's improving, I think, but she feels lost. I'm putting a bit of pressure on her to make her go to the police, though, as well as comforting her. Her father has tried to reach her, and make her come back home; I'm afraid something will happen.
She too is scared, as he has threatened her. She's getting ready to tell her cousin, though, who she's staying with at the moment, he will be the first person she tells this to face-to-face, bar her mother.

She's terrified, yes, as is to be expected. I'm trying to make her see that she should be going to the police, but she has asked me to give her time. What would you say is best in this situation, as she has been threatened if she tells anybody (nothing unexpected there, I guess), and is in doubt on whether she should do this ('he's my dad, for one') and has only just begun to heal. On top of that, she doesn't believe reporting him will make a difference, as she thinks they will claim that her brain is addled by drugs (she took drugs until several months ago), and she won't have enough credibility.
I'm incredibly proud of her that she's telling people, at least!

She needs to go through with telling authorities, for sure. What if her Dad actually gets to her and hurts her more? Without any official paper trail, it will be her word -vs- his. Also, beg her to consider that she might not be the only one. What if he moves on to preying on someone else because she kept silent and let him think what he did was alright? If she can't bring herself to report him out of fear for her own skin, beg her to report him to keep others safe, too.
I'm still so sorry she's going through this. Let her know we're all with her.

Hello all,
I don't have a lot of time here... my cousin has asked that I not use his computer to come on mw... he does not accept my beliefs but at least he respects them so I'm at the library for a bit.
I wanted to say thank you so much to myzterio for doing this... you've been an absolute angel for me. If it wasn't for your support I never would have been able to face this. You are the best! :hugz: couldn't have faced this without you my dear.
And also a huge thanks to all of you here at mw... Myzterio passed on your words to me but being here and reading it with my own eyes, it brings tears to my eyes. You are all so wonderful. Thank you so much for the hugs, support, energies, and advice. It means more to me than you all know.
Last night I spoke with me cousin and my closest friends about what happened. It was by far the hardest thing I've been through in a very long time. I was crying and I was too ashmed to look at anyone... They were outraged, and there were a few moments where I wondered if I might need to call the police simply to keep my friends from killing my father. But after a bit they did calm down enough to tell me they support me and are always here for me. It was good to get it off my chest.
They are indeed putting pressure on me to speak with the police... as is myzterio... (also... you're only putting a bit of pressure on me myz??? You just about caused me to have a full blown mental breakdown!!! But I know it's only cuz you care), I am simply not ready for that. Not yet... I know it must be done, but for the moment I need to heal. I need a bit of time.
As for my father contacting me... I blocked his phone number and he doesn't know where I am staying so for now at least I am safe.
Thanks again to everyone here. You guys are all so wonderful! :hugz:

Everyone here has already given the advice I would have. Please let her know that I am sending her energy and that she will be in my prayers.
Also...my mother didn't believe me when I told her about the abuse I had gone through (not with a parent) and it hurt me far more than the abuse itself did. Later I ended up in an abusive relationship and felt trapped because part of me was certain that no one would ever believe me about the guy. He was a real charmer, both in the mundane way and the magical way. My point is, try to get her help now. It's better that she deal with it now than end up facing it later because of another trauma.
Let her know that there are people that believe her. Let her know we care.

Last night, her friends set A Broken Soul an ultimatum: either she call the police, or they would. She did, and the police came to take her statement of pressing charges of sexual assault.
Her friend and cousin stood by her while they did, for which I'm grateful.
Her father was quickly arrested just over 3 hours ago, because there was another child in the house. Unfortunately, after that happened, her mother called her and went Retributive Christian (no offence to other Christians; I'm well aware the religion is based around love, but some people can misuse any religion) on her, saying that she deserves to burn in hell for trying to break up the family ever since she was born.
I told her that there wasn't much of a family to break up if her father abused her physically and sexually, and her mother didn't do anything about it and stood by her husband. I also made sure she knew that she, like any living being, deserves better than that.
Thank you all for showing your support... Thank you. :)

I'm relieved that he is out of the house! A Broken Soul, you are a very brave woman. Remember, bravery is being scared and not letting it stop you. I am so sorry to hear that your mother is continuing in her denial. It's horrible that so many women choose a man over their own children. I hope that she'll see the truth someday. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

I don't have advice on how to deal with it cause they're difficult and dangerous situations, but to let her know that she deserves better. She is not a problem or anyone's fault. He is the one harming her and she deserves better than how she is being treated. Nobody deserves abuse. A person's body deserves to belong to them and what they decide. The mother may be brainwashed and manipulated, which is common, which can complicate things.
If she still gets messages, tell her she's a beautiful person who deserves better and I hope she finds it.

She probably doesn't love herself a lot right now, but please let her know that we are really proud of her for standing up not only for herself, but the other child in the house. Please let her know that she is loved and valued by others because they see the beauty and the strength inside of her.

I haven't read the whole thread, so someone may have suggested it before, but she might consider calling RAINN (the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network).

Today, a friend of hers signed on her YIM account and started speaking to me, bringing bad news.
Last night, at 1 am her time, her father (having gotten out on bail) came to find her at her cousin's residence, while her cousin was absent (working till 3 am). A Broken Soul's cousin found her bruised and bleeding at the bottom of the stairs, and she had to go to the hospital. She's in terrible shape, and likely won't be around for a while. Her friend stayed with her all through the night. She has, at least, been awake, and I believe she's stable.
On the bright side, her father has been detained again, and will be charged with battery and assault, and possibly even attempted murder.

RAINN is a great free nationwide resource. You can check out their website at http://www.rainn.org/ or call their free 24/7 number at 1-800-656-HOPE. I hope this helps!
This is from the RAINN website:
The Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network is the nation's largest anti-sexual assault organization. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline and carries out programs to prevent sexual assault, help victims and ensure that rapists are brought to justice.

A Broken Soul has asked me to send you a message:
She is doing fine, and appreciates the support. She doesn't want you to be angry about what happened, because she feels her father isn't deserving of anger, she pities him, in fact. Also, she loves you all and hopes to be back soon.
You are in her thoughts, and Blessed Be.

Well that is an amazingly strong and wise attitude for her to take given what she has been through.
Still sending healing energy to her for a speedy recovery. :hugz:

Time for an update, albeit rather late.
First off, she got out of the hospital, and is doing just fine now. Whoo!
Her father has taken a deal, and will be spending 20 years in prison; so he's out of the way now. Whoo!
And then... She got romantically involved with the friend who contacted me about all this, with a little help from my part (they were both reluctant to admit it to the other, silly buggers :p); on new year's eve he proposed to her, and she accepted!
So all seems going well for her now! Whoo!
Thanks again, all of you, for your support of her! :hugz::D

And you're welcome, of course. :smile: I don't have any problems with bringing good news, it's a lot more fun to do than bringing all the bad news I've brought you so far!

Alright, I wasn't sure if she'd mind me telling people or not so I left something out of that post. I just asked, and she doesn't mind in the slightest, so, another joyous exclamation!
A Broken Soul is pregnant, too!! WHOOOOO!:abanana:_happydanc:ringaroun:thewave::fprtyman4

Nah, she doesn't have any regular access to a computer; and she told me I could tell everyone I wanted that she was pregnant, at least. :p
And, glad you gave him 'the talk', mate. ;)

Hello all!!!! I've missed you so much! I have soooooo very much to say and not much time so forgive me if I overlook anything.
First and foremost thank you all so much for everything... the support, prayers, and love through all this. It's truely been a blessing for me to have this. Even when I was in the hospital myzterio passed your thoughts on to me and also my fiancee printed the thread for me to read. You're all so wonderful. Hugs and love to you all.
Second... my father...please, no anger towards him. He has his flaws. He needs help. Maybe he will get it in jail. What he did to me was awful and I bear the scars and pain of that for the rest of my life but I do so without hating him. Yes he tried to kill me, yes he likely would have done so had I not injured him but I can forgive that... I have moved on. No longer is he a part of my life, nor is my mother.
What I went through was awful, yes. I Spent some time in the hospital with 3 broken ribs, a broken leg, a broken wrist, and a stab wound to my side... but I am healing. Mentally as well as physically.
Also... as myzterio so gleefully told you all... my life is getting better. MUCH better. My friend Matt and I have gotten re-involved romantically (thanks to myz for that... :fpraise: we owe you dear) and on new years eve at exactly midnight he proposed and I accepted. :woot::abanana::woot::abanana::woot::abanana:
We are very happy and expecting a child... just found that out on new years as well.
Things were horrible for me for a long time... in fact after my dad did what he did I tried to kill myself... but I learned that no matter how bad things get if you simply open your eyes and truly see you will find the light.
Thanks to all of you. Much love, hugs, and blessings.

Yes, like a girl.
I get to play the sweet-guy card; you know, the sort of thing that gets me married, while other people turn old and stop getting laid after a while.
How old were you again?

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone here who has supported me but I thought I'd let you all know that I lost the baby. I miscarried last week. I also lost matt, my fiancé all though that was more mutual. He and I aren't quite as compatible as we thought we were. Perhaps that's for the best though as he apparently still loves his ex wife. But anyways thanks for the support and much love to you all!

On behalf of A Broken Soul, a friend of mine and fellow member of MW (but can't access MW right now) has been having trouble at home. Her father is a drunk and abuses her. Recently, however, he has also taken to abusing her sexually recently, first with passes on her, and gradually getting worse.
A Broken Soul got away from the situation, but it's still heavily on her mind. She could use any energy you can send her, as well as any advice on dealing with sexual abuse from a parent, as it's on her mind now whenever she's alone. If you have any advice, please send it to me (I'll pass it on) or to her e-mail address, which you can find on her profile.
Thanks in advance!
Tell her to report him, and ensure she knows that isn't her fault... And she most definitely gets some energy from me...
