Cantaloupe, I want to hug you! I'm so sorry that you went through it. I empathize with you a lot. Two people who sexually abused me were my cousin and my brother. My parents hushed it all up and told me that I don't want justice, I want to ruin my brother's life.
I tried to report it. The cops told me that it was a family issue so I should contact a therapist, not them.
The experience messed me up a lot -- pushed me towards an abusive relationship where I was raped everyday.
I went no-contact with my biological family for a long time because of this. Now I talk to them sometimes but I have no respect or love for them.
There are others in the same boat as you. You are not alone. Safe hugs 🫂
There's nothing here!
