What is really sad about a lot of these situations, is the fact that people don't feel like they can talk about what they went through. There's a multitude of reasons that people may feel like this, but for me my family wanting me to KEEP MY MOUTH SHUT about what happened to ME, was the reason. But I am done. Done protecting those that don't protect me. I have alway's been there for those who needed me and those I FELT needed me. Being an empath is like that, but it's time to put myself first...
