		<description>I was raped and abused as a child by my stepfather. I was little and it made me distrustful of everyone even my own family... I became reclusive and depressed. I didn&#039;t have friends at school because I was scared that they would hurt me. I finally started to heal when my real father got remarried and I moved back in with him. I was half way healed when I met my boyfriend who I have now been with for over 4 years and he has helped me complete my healing</description>

		<description>I was raped at 26 and molested as a child.  I reported it to the police but it was a he said/she said situation - the rapist claimed I was &quot;angry because I couldn&#039;t perform&quot;.  Ugh. What a POS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s affected so much of my life!  School has gone down the drain several times because of the PTSD I&#039;ve experienced.  It&#039;s hard for me to be intimate with my husband and even when I can, I have to have the lights on because otherwise I have flashbacks.  It&#039;s not his fault, it&#039;s not MY fault, yet we&#039;re the ones paying for someone else&#039;s crime.</description>
