I don’t feel safe at home

[Diva11]

I don’t feel safe at home. My parents are both creeps. Especially my dad. He sexually abused me.

Hi Diva well done for posting. I can recognise the bravery that took. I’m so sorry that you are not safe in your own home. Everyone deserves to feel safe and free at home and so do you. Your father has committed a crime against you and you are not to blame at all for any of this. It is him.

I’m not sure how old you are and please don’t post your age or it will be taken down but the options to get help will depend if you are now an adult or child.

If you call the police they can help you get safe and hold him to account. Could you speak to your GP – perhaps pretend you need to see them for period problems and be really brave and tell them? Or a teacher or someone at work?

There are services that will help and support you there are some amazing charities that work with survivors of sexual abuse whether they are children or adult.

The first thing is to get safe. Do keep posting if you can. You are not alone. Take care

Hi Diva11

I also want you to know that none of this is your fault and that there are ways of getting yourself safe, but take your time and check out your options that are best for you.

Do be careful about how you use your internet access, and whether anything you use is truly secure as presumably its your parent’s wifi. Ideally you would use mobile data so they cannot track your site visits anywhere, and you will use your own devices so that no history, or footprint is left on their computer tech equipment.

Whenever you are out use your opportunities to alert someone, or access advise, appropriate to your age.

I know that other women on here have spoken of booths in Boots (I believe), where you can go in private and communicate your situation to access help.

There is also a chat facility on here you could use to speak with Womens Aid. I’ll go find it and add it into a reply for you if you wanted to do that.

I’m very sorry for your awful experiences, and hope that you can find help real soon.

Warmest wishes
