There was some failure somewhere. Her brother was 9 years old. She does not discuss it, but he very likely carries tremendous guilt, whether he has expressed it or not. Something must have happened to him either he was assaulted also or he was exposed to harmful adult material (p%rn). Anybody in this position should figure out if there were older influences of the brother, like an older cousin that lived or visited the house, older friends in the neighborhood, unfettered or unmonitored access to the internet or some source of "adult material", possibly owned by the parents (if it happened in the early 2000s where DVD's or magazines were still a primary source of adult material versus internet), that may have planted this horrible seed in a brothers mind. Many 9 year olds are still angels oblivious to the sins and evils of the world, her brother was corrupted somehow, by someone. I pray for all people in this situation.
@@kooky_bizarre Oh man, I'm sorry you are in this position. I wish I could give you an answer, but honestly, you probably need guidance from a professional, not someone like me who has my own struggles. Which is a good point, you are not alone, many people struggle with many sins either known or unknown to others.
You don’t even realize how much your story has just helped me, I was molested for years by my brother who is five years older then me as well. I feel like you made this video for me.
Me too . I just got molested this morning. I was trembling and scared. I had trouble time breathing. I can't bring myself to tell my mom cause I wouldn't want to see her crying. I hate him. I can't wait corona ends and I'm gonna get the hell out of here.
Irdina sarah I would tell her. I’m assuming you have a positive relationship with your mom. If you have that use that. She loves you and would want you to say something. When it was happening to me, I wish I had said something. Also, remember you are not in this alone. There are so many people who know how you feel. Stay strong and be brave. This shouldn’t be happening to you, it is not right.
i am so happy i posted this video i was terrified & still get chirped in the town i grew up for posting this video, being told i’m trying to get attention for my trauma when in reality i needed to post this just as much as you needed to watch it, seeing ur comment & knowing we went thru the exactly same thing makes me feel less disgusted with myself, thank you for sharing this with me 🖤
when i was 8 i was sexually abused by my older brother. he told me that everything was a game of a few minutes. I'm not safe even in my house. we still live together today and he acts as if nothing had happened. it’s heartbreaking to see him still in front of me today. I just want to tell my mom but I can’t, there is always something that stops me I hope to make it one day and to be able to tell her the whole truth.
My 11 year old sibling just told me about our brother who sexually assaulted her and it is so heartbreaking, I had no idea. I just want you to know I admire you deeply and think you are so inspiring.
@@avalon3821 hi, my little sister also shared the same exact thing with me. I’m older than her and I feel so guilty for not being there to protect her. I guess your comment kind of made me feel better than im not the only one going through the same thing.
@@cookiecutter3259 I’m glad I could help! I think she has forgiven him, although I’ll never be able to trust him fully again I’m trying to move on because she is too, and I feel it’s not really my place to hold grudges when she let it go. I hope your sister is safe!! It makes me sad others have to go through that I hope she can heal
@@avalon3821 when my sister told me she told me she forgave him and believes that he’s changed. I was the first person she told and It was the only thing I could think about for 3 months and then I told my mom. My mom really disappointed me in the way she reacted tbh she didn’t do anything but she comforted my sister. I don’t talk to my sibling even though we live in the same house. But I’m happy my sister isn’t letting it ruin her life. I also hope your sister is safe and can heal
@@cookiecutter3259 Awh I’m sorry ): I personally was kind of forced to be close with my siblings considering I have 5 of them and share a room with two of my little sisters, but maybe try inviting her to do things with you!! One thing that really helped me and my siblings relationship was venting to eachother, so maybe if you wanna become closer to her you can ask her how she feels. I don’t live with my mom but my dad gives me a really hard time too, especially with reactions to things he seems very insensitive. I wish parents were different /:
When your grandma responded with "well you've had sex before" goes to show that people sweep it under the rug bc pll continue to have sex after their abuse. Old people have just normalized it and make no attempts to prevent it.
This happened to me, from 3 to 16 .I'm 47 now and just started seeing a counselor. I don't even know how to sit my family down and tell them. I'm brought it up and was called a liar.
@@ShaylenaBrie he abused me so bad, gone as far as slamming my head into the side of the bathtub because I I wouldn't do anything in the middle of the night. In turn caused me to have 12 grandmaul seizures in 3 hrs. Its shot guns at me, taking me in the woods, in a cab over camper, the school bus, you name its happened.
Laura Knight You are definitely in my prays. Please start telling your truth weather ppl believe you or not, and start a spiritual journey to help you heal from this trauma. Also write your feelings down to help you cope with overcoming the pain. Please know that you are not alone.❤️🙏🏾
I was molested by my sister when I was 4-12, I still feel shame and guilt. Hopefully, I’ll have the strength to tell my therapist just like when you shared your story to us! Thank you very much for being brave and powerful to share your story! Remember, to anyone who is reading this, you matter and I love you all! We all don’t deserve to go through such trauma. Again, thank you!
Sea Bass, it gets better after you talk to people that the same things happen to them that's devastating in their lives and you may be able to forgive or pray for them!
I was also molested by my older sister. I told a therapist once; all he had to say was “that's unusual” and the subject was changed. I've felt the shame of molestation every day for many years.
You are so strong my bestfriend recently told me about how she got molested 4 times at 8 by her 40 year old uncle and it’s been 5 years and she still hasn’t told her story. I’m the only one who knows and I know it’s hard and I just want to tell you that you’re incredibly strong and brave. ❤️❤️❤️
thank you love, and thank you for being their for your bestfriend. she needs you and appreciates you. you are her safe and none judgement place. give yourself credit for being an awesome human !!
@@frankiestein3769 there isn’t much they can do as a lot of accusations can occur the parents have to come forward and everything and etc I mean after all there’s a reason that molesting a child and having access to cp is a felony crime and normally a person receives 25 to life the cops do their part they aren’t the ones who put you behind bars the judge and jury is for the main part and the police are just there to make sure you go behind bars
One of my 2 daughters was molested by their own dad when I was at work when she was 31/2 years old and she told me about it one morning when I was leaving for work and that she didn't want him doing that to her anymore and it just tore us up! Being in court was horrible and her having to deal with this was so heartbreaking! It didn't really hit her until she was about 12 years old what had happened to her and she had very awful anger issues. She was so cruel to me and her little sister and so she had to go stay with my mom and my step dad at their house. To this day, she doesn't want their dads name even mentioned at all and she goes into a rage if anyone does mention him. She's now 31 years old and has been in therapy and she has an extremely short temper now and is a very serious person because of this awful thing that happened to her. She's a beautiful 31 year old young lady now and she has a beautiful daughter of her own and she and my granddaughters dad take extremely good care of her co parenting. She's 3 years old and my daughter protects her so well!❤❤
It’s crazy and scary how much people share the same experiences that I was so ashamed of myself. Thank u so much for sharing this video. I still don’t have the courage to bring it up even though it’s been 11 years since it happened & hopefully one day to a therapist. I admire how strong you are. 💟
my TH-cam and TikTok has connected me with so many other survivors. its insane how many of us have the exact same if not very similar experiences. you're a warrior and I know you'll find ur voice soon. until then I will be ur voice xo
You are an exceptionally brave young lady and I commend you for your courage to bring the Truth out in the open , regardless of the consequences ! I wish you strength and perseverance in your quest to find true happiness . ❤
I was molested by my half brother, too. Never told my parents or anyone...I am 41 now and have flash backs from time to time...You are a very strong young woman...
We are survivors ❣️ I’m suffering so deeply from a similar situation that just happened this year and I’m falling apart. But I’m not alone thanks to people like you strong enough to share your experiences
Hopefully you already heard this, but I just feel the need to say these things as well: - you did NOTHING wrong ! - you have no reason to feel ashamed ! - you deserve to be loved, there is NOTHING that makes you any less lovable than any other human being ! - what you're doing is BRAVE ! Keep getting therapy ! Hope you'll be ok ! PS. that cat is cute :)
I’m really sorry this happened to you. In all the cases of sexual abuse I blame the parents for not talking to the children about sex, touching etc from a very young age and not making them comfortable and reassuring them that they can talk about anything and everything that does or doesn’t feel right.
I told my children about all that and to tell me right away. I told them the person has to have punishment from me so telling me right away will get justice faster.
Never blame ANYONE except the predator. The way this type of abuse happens breaks anyone down over time. Any information and strength is recalibrated. Grooming is specific to the situation.
Thank you for this video, I was molested by my older brother I don't know for how long. He passed away last year I did not had a chance to tell him what he have done to me. I wish I did, just to let him know that i know what he have done and that i still remember everything he have done to me. I came from an Arab culture where women have no voice. Now I m 50 and I live in Canada thanks God. I encourage everyone one that have been abused to call the abuser and tell them that they hurts you.
I recently went through a traumatic experience, where my brother touched me. What makes it so much worse is that we are so close in age and I kept telling him I was uncomfortable, I said no, I don’t give consent, and his continued to trick me. I feel so ashamed, so I’m grateful that there are so many people who can I can relate to, and feel better about what happened and about myself
I’m coming back to this video at 23 after first seeing it at 20 when my family first heard about my trauma and it’s hitting different cause I’m now in therapy working on my toxic traits. I see myself more when u hear you talk. Thank you so much for this
The same happened to me. My brother is 6 yrs. older. I'm 52 and only now able to tell my therapist. No one else knows. Thank you for sharing. You are so brave!
I am literally in tears rn. All the memories just came in front of me. I was molested for 7 years by my cousin. I finally opened up last year to my brother. Thank you for sharing and more strength to you xoxo
You are so strong! Please don’t give up and don’t give In to those horrible thoughts. Replace the bad with good memories! Ur so beautiful inside and out ! Thank u for sharing ur story
My brother was molested by a friend and then molested me almost daily from ages 4 - 9. The “blackmailing” as you put it... I understand so much. I appreciate this video. Thank you so much for sharing. I hope you continue to keep hanging in there. Thank you so much for this. I can’t thank you enough.
I was molested by my stepfather at the age of 9-12, whenever my mom traveled for work. At the time I was afraid to tell her, but I always cried and prayed for her to come home soon. From the age of 13-17 I was able to defend myself, but I was this bitter child. I hated him so much and I’m so glad he’s no longer in the family. I finally opened up to my mom at 20. This will always be painful to remember but I never let it get the best of me. Thank you for sharing your story, I’m truly sorry that you had to go through so much pain. You’re a very strong person.
I am so sorry that you experience that love, no child should ever be subjected to what you were, Im glad you were able to tell your mother and I hope you've started a journey of healing xo ur going to be an extraordinary woman because of this!
As a mother of 2 small children I have a question. What could your mother have done to make you feel more safe or more like you could tell her? Was there a reason you were scared to tell her? I definitely need to let my children know they can come to me with anything and any secret no matter how scary. This is my biggest fear for my children.
i would try to establish a close relationship with your kids by asking them every morning and night how they are mentally, let me know they can be vulnerable with you 24/7 and that no matter what they come to you with it will be a judgement free. i also think educating your children on sex as early as possible will protect him, as long as they know what’s going with their body they will have control of it. my parents never spoke about sex or about how the bodies work, leaving my brother to figure it out on his own causing me to get molested for years and me unable to speak about it because i didn’t understand it was wrong... it’s amazing that you even asked this question and i have faith ur going to be the best mother those kids could ask for. goodluck love 🤍
When I opened up to my mom about me being molested by a close family member all she said was “you’re a liar. He would never do that” I feel so alone because nobody wants to believe me and I’ve always been blamed for opening up about it because it’s my fault somehow
Amazing Bravery! You're a strong young woman to open up about something so traumatic, painful, scary and confusing. You will help many others open up and fight for what is right. Thank you for sharing your story.
you are so so strong for sharing your story. my brother is 3 years older than me and i experienced this ages 11-14 or so. i wish people like you existed back then for me to realize i wasnt alone. took me 10 years to speak up against mine and another two years after that until i actually met someone with the shared experience. so proud of you
It has already been said, you're a survivor and a courageous woman. I'm pleased for you that your parents support you. I'm glad you got help. Please take each moment, each day at a time. Thank you for sharing your story. Take care, kia kaha (be strong).
Thank you for sharing. Seeing you here right now, with so much courage to share your story gives me motivation & hope 💞 I just need to get out of my house and watching videos of people who can relate helps out a lot while I’m here. I feel less ashamed & validated 😌
This is incredibly brave of you, Shaylena. You are so strong! I know that you will overcome this, and go on to live a long, happy, prosperous life. Because you are facing it. And that must be so difficult. But through your personal work, I know that you will gain more and more insight into how this affected you. You are not a toxic person at all! People can change behaviors if they really want to. You have a beautiful spirit, keep believing in yourself. (On a personal note, you really helped me understand my former partner's ways. She endured an almost identical story with her older half-brother. But she never found the courage to face it, work through it, and call it what it is.) I give you a tremendous amount of credit for taking this on. I am so confident that you will grow and heal. I believe in you.
I’m grateful for this video. Not able to watch it all the way through because my own assault is so frightening to face, but thank you for this and I’m grateful it will be here when I’m ready to face it. We’re not alone❤️
This is so brave of you this really helps people who are going through same situations it really feel like your not alone I’m so sorry you had to go through that.
People don’t realize how devastating it is to be hurt by the people we should be able to trust and protect us, it really shatters your world in a way most people could possibly understand.
Thank You for taking the time to create and share this informational video with us all. I hope your courage to do so will help many parents be more aware so this horrible trauma does not happen to anyone else.
I'm sorry that you had gone through this. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I have had a lot of previous ex's that have been thru it growing up. Its traumatizing. Hurts my feeling hearing these stories. If I ever hear about person and see them I surely would love to throw hands. I'll send you more strength. ♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was four and my brother was 10. Only one time but it was enough to break apart our family when I remembered and told people. The parallels in your story and mine are uncanny. I was the only girl, middle child of two brothers as well. And my older brother was just my dads son, so half brother technically. We too were once a happy family. I feel as though the effect that this has had on my family is almost worse than what the actual trauma did to me. Thank you for sharing. Helps to know I’m not alone.
You are so strong for speaking up. You empower a lot of people, I saw some gaps in the video where you obviously had to step aside to gather yourself but you came back to tell the story and that is so strong of you. My experience is that i spoke up as an adult at 31yrs and I wasnt beleived and I was blamed actually. Now i suffer the awkward annual Christmas gatherings with the person staring as if to deliberately make me uncomfortable. It takes me a whole week to feel at peace again after attending those christmas gatherings. Iam finally gonna seek counseling this year. I suspect that he did something to another sibling who ended up with addiction issues. That other sibling has been to rehab but hasnt reclaimed normal life. He still struggles with something that we do not know. My folks are seem to once again sweep the issues under the rug.
My mother was abused by her brothers. She rarely never talked about it. I think if she would have, she wouldn't have held it in, ultimately making her sick. You're amazing and strong 🕊 Thank you for sharing, I've always wondered about her perspective. This will help the future generations.
I just wanna say I also hate incest porn. I was hurt by my brother too and felt so gross too. I dont have parents that care about me anymore. Im still hurting over the rape, coming forward, and losing my whole family. Thanks for telling your story. Im happy you shared this and share important topics. Sorry! Xoxo
So sad for you. But I hope you know your worth and even though you lost your family they are missing out. You are amazing and strong. You have to be really strong to deal with that you are so great keep moving forward and doing you
You are very brave for telling your story. I'm sure others who experienced the same things can find strength through your honesty I wish you all the strength you need to help you work through your trauma,peace.
I just came across this video. Thank you for your tremendous bravery in making this video. You are helping so many people. So crazy. We have the same birthday and very similar experience. My parents never believed me, even after my brother admitted to doing it. Lots of heartbreak as I'm sure you can relate to. Please continue being so strong and following your dreams. You did NOT do anything to be in this situation. Sending so much love
Thank you for sharing your story, i felt like the moment your video showed up on my youtube feed and having gone through the same i felt like we're both strong women who had gone through a lot ♥️
I was molested by my cousin when we were both children. I know your pain and I’m so sorry you had to endure that, especially by a family member. You’re such a strong woman for sharing your story. I hope to become as strong as you one day! ❤️
The courage you have to let your story free is what helps us all feel less lonely in our struggles accepting our truth, thank you so much for letting your soul speak.
You are much stronger than you think you are. I can't even imagine the suffering that you went through. I just wish you'll all better now. Continue to use your voice to empower and encourage people. Praying for the best!
Just found out that my sister and I were raped by my grandfather in the same room and all the emotions hit instantly and I didn't know what to do so I Googled how to deal with it thank u your story helped me come to terms with what happened and I am getting through it with therapy ❤️
I'm so sorry you had to experience that. I am so proud of you from talking about it. I am also a survivor of childhood sexual abuse by an older sibling and Its still hard sometimes . I'm just about old enough to be your mom but your story is so empowering for me! Thank you for sharing! Stay amazing and never forget that you are beautiful, you are valid, and you are worthy of love.
I thought it was my fault I was 9 he was 14... I told my guidance counselor in middle school and wrote an apology letter in my purse. I was curious and taken advantage of. I grew up like that too physical and mental abuse. We had no running water or electricity from the time I was 8-12. I had no confidence 😭 ty so much for sharing! I feel less alone....
Def can relate. I went thru this too while dealing with that kinda thing. Nothing but cold water or no electricity, church food or no food. Times were especially rough in that time as well 😢I feel for u
Thanks you so much for sharing your story, I felt I could really relate and didn't feel like the only one who felt certain ways that confused me for the longest time.
I AM SO VERY PROUD OF YOU, YOUR COURAGE, YOUR STRENGTH!!! My older brother molested me for 3 years, ages 10-12...3 years that have affected all the rest of my many, 74, years. I was only able to speak the truth, of having been molested and the life issues that resulted, when my parents died...and I, finally, felt free enough to make a decision to NEVER see him again...no more "happy family reunions" to please our parents. it's been 25 years since I confronted him and broke free. 5 1/2 years of head therapy, diagnosis of PTSD, followed. Funds well spent! I'm happy that you were able to tell your truth so early in your life. Keep up your fight to heal from within...the effort is painful, but worth every tear. Forgive my brother? NEVER! My anger, shame, guilt, grief and disappointment provide the fuel for my recovery and for my choice to make a better life for myself. I am stronger for having come through to "the other side," and you will be, too. Remember that incest is "allowed" to happen because a family is dysfunctional, We are not victims any longer. WE ARE SURVIVORS!!
That little child is alive inside of all of us, it doesn't matter how old we are. She still deserves the love and understanding she never got! None of that was your fault!! It is the fault of the perpetrator! I am 70, and still coming to terms with the normalization of the unacceptable. Bless you in all your efforts ❤️
I want to thank all of you for your comments. I vividly remember when I first heard that this would be a lifelong recovery...so discouraged that it would always be with me. The years have rolled by and I am able to see things with totally different eyes. I look back at my 27 years of journal entries and I can see when various levels of progress and healing have been realized...when anger became strength and determination, when frustrations became steps forward, when shame became courage and when responsibility shifted to its rightful owner.. While the work of learning to live with new ways of thinking has been exhausting, it is well worth the effort!! Reading journals shows my old ways of living as a victim...a decided contrast to the survivor life I am living today!! I remain a life in progress!
You are so strong and I am in awe of your strength, dignity, and courage. You stating your truth no matter what is a testament of someone who is already taking the steps towards healing. Stay strong and remember the truth doesn't need defending it just is. Much love.
Thank you for this😔I felt like I was the only one going through this,my older brother molested me when I was 6 up til 11 and I'm now 13☹️I think about it everyday,I just blame myself and the amount of shame and embarrassment I have is indescribable 😢💔I feel disgusted and the worst part is that I still live with him and talk to him like we're normal siblings 😔idk if he forgot but I'll never forget it,I've never told anyone and I don't think I'll ever 😔it is consuming me because I keep it bottled up but I can't do nothing about it...
i lived with my brother for years as well & had to talk to him like we were normal as well & it made my life so anxious. i get what ur going threw love & i wish i could hug you. please don’t blame urself there is so much more to it
@@ShaylenaBrie thank you so much❤️😢 this means the world to me 😊,nobody should have to go through this especially when you're just a kid and don't know anything 😔but I've learned to live with it,but still I get anxiety thinking about it, but thank you so much for sharing your story with us, you are brave and I'm so sorry for what happened to you 😔but things will get better😊.
I know how that’s feels. It’s horrible I was molested for 7+ years and still blame myself but you have to remember the you were manipulated and brain washed into it. It’s not our fault that it happened to us.
Don’t blame yourself love it’s not your fault. Please try to seek as much help as you can. There are tons of resources on TH-cam and google. Stay safe!!💙
Hi sweetheart, I’m so sorry that happened to you. I hope your doing better. I was molested and it’s been a lifelong journey of healing. Much love to you and big hugs ❤️
Amazed by your strength and talking about this. A friend of mine told her Mum and she didn’t believe her and continued seeing her father the abuser. Some people are in denial because they can’t handle the situation. God bless and you are strong,take care love 💕
Thanks for talking about this . I feel like I can’t admit anything because no one is going to believe me … or they’ll blame me some how or I’ll be exiled . So I’m just looking for other people to relate to
I’m so sorry this happened to you. You should be very proud of yourself for speaking out. The same thing happened to me by my brother, but I’m much older at 62 and it’s been a lifetime of dealing with the trauma. I’m so happy that you are getting the help you deserve. Much love to you ❤
Thank you for this. I am 43 and was molested by my sister from 5-14 and I can’t understand why this happened then I was molested by my cousin from 8-15 !!
I was molested by my older cousin from about 8-11. I never spoke out about it because I live in Alabama and the “cousin lover” stereotype always disgusted me. I never wanted to talk about it. I was groomed into it because I looked up to my cousin so much. He was my hero and always babysat me. I still struggle to talk about it and no one in my family knows, except maybe my little brother because I remember him witnessing it sometimes. It’s still hard.
I'm sorry you went through that. You are worthy of love, to live and be loved. Be gentle with yourself. You did not ask for that. It is not your fault. Be beautiful and strong always. You've done good here.
That's a good thing you exposed him... 👍🏻... Nobody is going to judge you for talking about your story...we all support you. Try inner child healing, I am sure it will help you my dear sister.
thanks for telling your story it probably helped you and others who can't find the words or someone who cares about them enough to listen to them .let your love an light in and it will be a Beacon for other hurting souls.
I was molested by my mom's best friend when I was eleven and thirteen. I had known him since I was seven, he had practically seen me grow up, and the realization that he was sexually turned on by my body disgusted me and made me feel dirty. After it happened, I kept quiet because I wasn't ready to talk about it and I didn't think that anyone would believe me. It took me four years to finally tell my mom, and throughout those four years I had to keep seeing him, which is how it happened twice. I was afraid that if I showed discomfort or told him "no" that he would get angry and possibly hurt me. I constantly had nightmares, flashbacks whether I was awake or sleeping, and I became very suicidal. It took every ounce of my being to not end my life, and now here I am, almost 16 years old, and I can't imagine taking my life as I now have so many hopes and goals I wish to accomplish. To anyone out there that is currently going through or has been through something traumatic, it does get better with time, I promise.
Thank you for sharing your story, your an amazing young lady. I believe everything you said that happen to you. My sister has the same story and it also happen with our half brother. God bless you, I'm praying for complete healing in you. It's not your fault this happen. It's wonderful that you can tell your story, believe me your helping alot of young people out here. God bless you
Thank you for sharing i hate when things like this don't get handled but they can never get handled if no one speaks up an when no one speaks more that creates way more victims
What’s a sad thing is we are taught to be aware of danger outside the home when the danger is likely in the home.
this !!!!
@@ShaylenaBrie thank you ❤️
Exactly I went through the same things
There was some failure somewhere. Her brother was 9 years old. She does not discuss it, but he very likely carries tremendous guilt, whether he has expressed it or not. Something must have happened to him either he was assaulted also or he was exposed to harmful adult material (p%rn). Anybody in this position should figure out if there were older influences of the brother, like an older cousin that lived or visited the house, older friends in the neighborhood, unfettered or unmonitored access to the internet or some source of "adult material", possibly owned by the parents (if it happened in the early 2000s where DVD's or magazines were still a primary source of adult material versus internet), that may have planted this horrible seed in a brothers mind. Many 9 year olds are still angels oblivious to the sins and evils of the world, her brother was corrupted somehow, by someone. I pray for all people in this situation.
@@kooky_bizarre Oh man, I'm sorry you are in this position. I wish I could give you an answer, but honestly, you probably need guidance from a professional, not someone like me who has my own struggles. Which is a good point, you are not alone, many people struggle with many sins either known or unknown to others.
You don’t even realize how much your story has just helped me, I was molested for years by my brother who is five years older then me as well. I feel like you made this video for me.
Me too . I just got molested this morning. I was trembling and scared. I had trouble time breathing. I can't bring myself to tell my mom cause I wouldn't want to see her crying. I hate him. I can't wait corona ends and I'm gonna get the hell out of here.
Irdina sarah I would tell her. I’m assuming you have a positive relationship with your mom. If you have that use that. She loves you and would want you to say something. When it was happening to me, I wish I had said something. Also, remember you are not in this alone. There are so many people who know how you feel. Stay strong and be brave. This shouldn’t be happening to you, it is not right.
@@sarahmedina4135 sad to hear that..you will be in my prayer from now on..Be strong..God is good all the time..🙏

tell her 🖤 let the truth set you free
when i was 8 i was sexually abused by my older brother.
he told me that everything was a game of a few minutes.
I'm not safe even in my house.
we still live together today and he acts as if nothing had happened.
it’s heartbreaking to see him still in front of me today.
I just want to tell my mom but I can’t, there is always something that stops me
I hope to make it one day and to be able to tell her the whole truth.
My 11 year old sibling just told me about our brother who sexually assaulted her and it is so heartbreaking, I had no idea. I just want you to know I admire you deeply and think you are so inspiring.
@@avalon3821 hi, my little sister also shared the same exact thing with me. I’m older than her and I feel so guilty for not being there to protect her. I guess your comment kind of made me feel better than im not the only one going through the same thing.
@@cookiecutter3259 I’m glad I could help! I think she has forgiven him, although I’ll never be able to trust him fully again I’m trying to move on because she is too, and I feel it’s not really my place to hold grudges when she let it go. I hope your sister is safe!! It makes me sad others have to go through that I hope she can heal
@@avalon3821 when my sister told me she told me she forgave him and believes that he’s changed. I was the first person she told and It was the only thing I could think about for 3 months and then I told my mom. My mom really disappointed me in the way she reacted tbh she didn’t do anything but she comforted my sister. I don’t talk to my sibling even though we live in the same house. But I’m happy my sister isn’t letting it ruin her life. I also hope your sister is safe and can heal
@@cookiecutter3259 Awh I’m sorry ): I personally was kind of forced to be close with my siblings considering I have 5 of them and share a room with two of my little sisters, but maybe try inviting her to do things with you!! One thing that really helped me and my siblings relationship was venting to eachother, so maybe if you wanna become closer to her you can ask her how she feels. I don’t live with my mom but my dad gives me a really hard time too, especially with reactions to things he seems very insensitive. I wish parents were different /:
When your grandma responded with "well you've had sex before" goes to show that people sweep it under the rug bc pll continue to have sex after their abuse. Old people have just normalized it and make no attempts to prevent it.
Where is that monster now?
Could she have been.
A song for you dear. Sincerely.
th-cam.com/video/Q58vdI8ljRQ/w-d-xo.html
Maybe grandpa or an uncle on grandma's side exposed him to it and that's why she's in denial.
Doesn't make the brother less of a monster.
This happened to me, from 3 to 16 .I'm 47 now and just started seeing a counselor. I don't even know how to sit my family down and tell them. I'm brought it up and was called a liar.
i’m so sorry you had to experience that
@@ShaylenaBrie he abused me so bad, gone as far as slamming my head into the side of the bathtub because I I wouldn't do anything in the middle of the night. In turn caused me to have 12 grandmaul seizures in 3 hrs. Its shot guns at me, taking me in the woods, in a cab over camper, the school bus, you name its happened.

I was molested by my sister when I was 4-12, I still feel shame and guilt. Hopefully, I’ll have the strength to tell my therapist just like when you shared your story to us! Thank you very much for being brave and powerful to share your story! Remember, to anyone who is reading this, you matter and I love you all! We all don’t deserve to go through such trauma. Again, thank you!
you are a survivor and I know you will find your strength to tell your therapist. I am sending you prayers and a big hug xo
Sea Bass, it gets better after you talk to people that the same things happen to them that's devastating in their lives and you may be able to forgive or pray for them!
Are you a boy? I have similar experience. the thing is, a female harassing male is not considered abusive by many people, so disappointing
How old was your sister ?
I was also molested by my older sister. I told a therapist once; all he had to say was “that's unusual” and the subject was changed. I've felt the shame of molestation every day for many years.
Hold your head up high!!!you’re such a strong woman..
thank u 🖤
You are so strong my bestfriend recently told me about how she got molested 4 times at 8 by her 40 year old uncle and it’s been 5 years and she still hasn’t told her story. I’m the only one who knows and I know it’s hard and I just want to tell you that you’re incredibly strong and brave. ❤️❤️❤️
thank you love, and thank you for being their for your bestfriend. she needs you and appreciates you. you are her safe and none judgement place. give yourself credit for being an awesome human !!
Ugonma Kalu Tell her mother
Tell the cops
@@rashramxd4866 cops rarely do anything
@@frankiestein3769 there isn’t much they can do as a lot of accusations can occur the parents have to come forward and everything and etc I mean after all there’s a reason that molesting a child and having access to cp is a felony crime and normally a person receives 25 to life the cops do their part they aren’t the ones who put you behind bars the judge and jury is for the main part and the police are just there to make sure you go behind bars
One of my 2 daughters was molested by their own dad when I was at work when she was 31/2 years old and she told me about it one morning when I was leaving for work and that she didn't want him doing that to her anymore and it just tore us up! Being in court was horrible and her having to deal with this was so heartbreaking! It didn't really hit her until she was about 12 years old what had happened to her and she had very awful anger issues. She was so cruel to me and her little sister and so she had to go stay with my mom and my step dad at their house. To this day, she doesn't want their dads name even mentioned at all and she goes into a rage if anyone does mention him. She's now 31 years old and has been in therapy and she has an extremely short temper now and is a very serious person because of this awful thing that happened to her. She's a beautiful 31 year old young lady now and she has a beautiful daughter of her own and she and my granddaughters dad take extremely good care of her co parenting. She's 3 years old and my daughter protects her so well!❤❤
It’s crazy and scary how much people share the same experiences that I was so ashamed of myself. Thank u so much for sharing this video. I still don’t have the courage to bring it up even though it’s been 11 years since it happened & hopefully one day to a therapist. I admire how strong you are. 💟

we are survivors xo
Stay strong
Hopefully you already heard this, but I just feel the need to say these things as well:
- you did NOTHING wrong !
- you have no reason to feel ashamed !
- you deserve to be loved, there is NOTHING that makes you any less lovable than any other human being !
- what you're doing is BRAVE ! Keep getting therapy !
Hope you'll be ok !
PS. that cat is cute :)
I have nothing but the utmost respect for you. You have more guts than most people ever have.
I’m really sorry this happened to you. In all the cases of sexual abuse I blame the parents for not talking to the children about sex, touching etc from a very young age and not making them comfortable and reassuring them that they can talk about anything and everything that does or doesn’t feel right.
my parents didn't educate me young enough and they are aware of this now
And it does happen to males as well.
I told my children about all that and to tell me right away. I told them the person has to have punishment from me so telling me right away will get justice faster.
Never blame ANYONE except the predator. The way this type of abuse happens breaks anyone down over time. Any information and strength is recalibrated.
Grooming is specific to the situation.
Thank you for being so vulnerable on the internet, I needed this.
Thank you for this video, I was molested by my older brother I don't know for how long. He passed away last year I did not had a chance to tell him what he have done to me. I wish I did, just to let him know that i know what he have done and that i still remember everything he have done to me. I came from an Arab culture where women have no voice. Now I m 50 and I live in Canada thanks God. I encourage everyone one that have been abused to call the abuser and tell them that they hurts you.
I am sorry you couldn't tell him you knew, I hope you find peace
don't worry, dear. God will punish him on the day of judgement and he will be humiliated infront of everyone. You will get justice ❤️❤️
Jesus is Coming 🙏🏾 ❤️
Poor soul, may Allah protect you...
You are so strong to speak out about this. I wish you none thing but peace and happiness. You’re in my prays.

I recently went through a traumatic experience, where my brother touched me. What makes it so much worse is that we are so close in age and I kept telling him I was uncomfortable, I said no, I don’t give consent, and his continued to trick me. I feel so ashamed, so I’m grateful that there are so many people who can I can relate to, and feel better about what happened and about myself
Are you okay now? There’s a hotline where you can talk to if you need help. I hope that you’re okay?
@@lamaya6227 Yes I’m feeling a lot better, I was able to talk to someone. Thank u

I was molested by my stepfather at the age of 9-12, whenever my mom traveled for work. At the time I was afraid to tell her, but I always cried and prayed for her to come home soon. From the age of 13-17 I was able to defend myself, but I was this bitter child. I hated him so much and I’m so glad he’s no longer in the family. I finally opened up to my mom at 20. This will always be painful to remember but I never let it get the best of me. Thank you for sharing your story, I’m truly sorry that you had to go through so much pain. You’re a very strong person.
I am so sorry that you experience that love, no child should ever be subjected to what you were, Im glad you were able to tell your mother and I hope you've started a journey of healing xo ur going to be an extraordinary woman because of this!
As a mother of 2 small children I have a question. What could your mother have done to make you feel more safe or more like you could tell her? Was there a reason you were scared to tell her? I definitely need to let my children know they can come to me with anything and any secret no matter how scary. This is my biggest fear for my children.
i would try to establish a close relationship with your kids by asking them every morning and night how they are mentally, let me know they can be vulnerable with you 24/7 and that no matter what they come to you with it will be a judgement free. i also think educating your children on sex as early as possible will protect him, as long as they know what’s going with their body they will have control of it. my parents never spoke about sex or about how the bodies work, leaving my brother to figure it out on his own causing me to get molested for years and me unable to speak about it because i didn’t understand it was wrong... it’s amazing that you even asked this question and i have faith ur going to be the best mother those kids could ask for. goodluck love 🤍
When I opened up to my mom about me being molested by a close family member all she said was “you’re a liar. He would never do that” I feel so alone because nobody wants to believe me and I’ve always been blamed for opening up about it because it’s my fault somehow
You’re story means a lot. I can’t begin to explain. Stay strong.
Thank you, I will xo
Thank you for sharing this. It helps us feel less alone. I know it’s so hard but you are so strong for this.
Thank you so much!
Amazing Bravery! You're a strong young woman to open up about something so traumatic, painful, scary and confusing. You will help many others open up and fight for what is right. Thank you for sharing your story.
Nice profile 🙂
you are so so strong for sharing your story. my brother is 3 years older than me and i experienced this ages 11-14 or so. i wish people like you existed back then for me to realize i wasnt alone. took me 10 years to speak up against mine and another two years after that until i actually met someone with the shared experience. so proud of you
It has already been said, you're a survivor and a courageous woman. I'm pleased for you that your parents support you. I'm glad you got help. Please take each moment, each day at a time. Thank you for sharing your story. Take care, kia kaha (be strong).
Your very brave to speak out. It was never your fault and pray you get through this🙏🏾💖
Thank you for sharing. Seeing you here right now, with so much courage to share your story gives me motivation & hope 💞 I just need to get out of my house and watching videos of people who can relate helps out a lot while I’m here. I feel less ashamed & validated 😌
thanks for supporting, you got this xo

Thank you for sharing, you're very brave. Sorry you had to go through that - NONE of it was your fault!
This is incredibly brave of you, Shaylena. You are so strong! I know that you will overcome this, and go on to live a long, happy, prosperous life. Because you are facing it. And that must be so difficult. But through your personal work, I know that you will gain more and more insight into how this affected you. You are not a toxic person at all! People can change behaviors if they really want to. You have a beautiful spirit, keep believing in yourself. (On a personal note, you really helped me understand my former partner's ways. She endured an almost identical story with her older half-brother. But she never found the courage to face it, work through it, and call it what it is.) I give you a tremendous amount of credit for taking this on. I am so confident that you will grow and heal. I believe in you.
I’m grateful for this video. Not able to watch it all the way through because my own assault is so frightening to face, but thank you for this and I’m grateful it will be here when I’m ready to face it. We’re not alone❤️
This is so brave of you this really helps people who are going through same situations it really feel like your not alone I’m so sorry you had to go through that.
People don’t realize how devastating it is to be hurt by the people we should be able to trust and protect us, it really shatters your world in a way most people could possibly understand.
Thank you for making this video, as a victim of abuse by my own blood this made me feel like I’m not alone.💗💗

Thank You for taking the time to create and share this informational video with us all. I hope your courage to do so will help many parents be more aware so this horrible trauma does not happen to anyone else.
I recently started working with DV and SA survivors and I commend you on your bravery to tell your story!
I'm sorry that you had gone through this. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I have had a lot of previous ex's that have been thru it growing up. Its traumatizing. Hurts my feeling hearing these stories. If I ever hear about person and see them I surely would love to throw hands. I'll send you more strength. ♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was four and my brother was 10. Only one time but it was enough to break apart our family when I remembered and told people. The parallels in your story and mine are uncanny. I was the only girl, middle child of two brothers as well. And my older brother was just my dads son, so half brother technically. We too were once a happy family. I feel as though the effect that this has had on my family is almost worse than what the actual trauma did to me. Thank you for sharing. Helps to know I’m not alone.
It’s actually crazy how many other families have been threw almost the exact same thing as us! You aren’t alone 🤍
Hugs
You are so strong for speaking up. You empower a lot of people, I saw some gaps in the video where you obviously had to step aside to gather yourself but you came back to tell the story and that is so strong of you. My experience is that i spoke up as an adult at 31yrs and I wasnt beleived and I was blamed actually. Now i suffer the awkward annual Christmas gatherings with the person staring as if to deliberately make me uncomfortable. It takes me a whole week to feel at peace again after attending those christmas gatherings.
Iam finally gonna seek counseling this year. I suspect that he did something to another sibling who ended up with addiction issues. That other sibling has been to rehab but hasnt reclaimed normal life. He still struggles with something that we do not know. My folks are seem to once again sweep the issues under the rug.
My mother was abused by her brothers. She rarely never talked about it. I think if she would have, she wouldn't have held it in, ultimately making her sick.
You're amazing and strong 🕊
Thank you for sharing, I've always wondered about her perspective. This will help the future generations.
I just wanna say I also hate incest porn. I was hurt by my brother too and felt so gross too.
I dont have parents that care about me anymore.
Im still hurting over the rape, coming forward, and losing my whole family.
Thanks for telling your story. Im happy you shared this and share important topics.
Sorry! Xoxo

You are so brave and this is a part of heeling and can really help the next child!!!
You are very brave for telling your story. I'm sure others who experienced the same things can find strength through your honesty I wish you all the strength you need to help you work through your trauma,peace.
I just came across this video. Thank you for your tremendous bravery in making this video. You are helping so many people. So crazy. We have the same birthday and very similar experience. My parents never believed me, even after my brother admitted to doing it. Lots of heartbreak as I'm sure you can relate to. Please continue being so strong and following your dreams. You did NOT do anything to be in this situation. Sending so much love

Just found out that my sister and I were raped by my grandfather in the same room and all the emotions hit instantly and I didn't know what to do so I Googled how to deal with it thank u your story helped me come to terms with what happened and I am getting through it with therapy ❤️
I'm so sorry you had to experience that. I am so proud of you from talking about it. I am also a survivor of childhood sexual abuse by an older sibling and Its still hard sometimes . I'm just about old enough to be your mom but your story is so empowering for me! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks you so much for sharing your story, I felt I could really relate and didn't feel like the only one who felt certain ways that confused me for the longest time.
I AM SO VERY PROUD OF YOU, YOUR COURAGE, YOUR STRENGTH!!! My older brother molested me for 3 years, ages 10-12...3 years that have affected all the rest of my many, 74, years. I was only able to speak the truth, of having been molested and the life issues that resulted, when my parents died...and I, finally, felt free enough to make a decision to NEVER see him again...no more "happy family reunions" to please our parents. it's been 25 years since I confronted him and broke free. 5 1/2 years of head therapy, diagnosis of PTSD, followed. Funds well spent! I'm happy that you were able to tell your truth so early in your life. Keep up your fight to heal from within...the effort is painful, but worth every tear. Forgive my brother? NEVER! My anger, shame, guilt, grief and disappointment provide the fuel for my recovery and for my choice to make a better life for myself. I am stronger for having come through to "the other side," and you will be, too. Remember that incest is "allowed" to happen because a family is dysfunctional, We are not victims any longer. WE ARE SURVIVORS!!
yes, yes we are xox
Forgive him so you can set yourself free, God will do the rest 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@madambutterfly7513 let her make that choice. God gave us all that freedom.
That little child is alive inside of all of us, it doesn't matter how old we are. She still deserves the love and understanding she never got! None of that was your fault!! It is the fault of the perpetrator! I am 70, and still coming to terms with the normalization of the unacceptable. Bless you in all your efforts ❤️
I want to thank all of you for your comments. I vividly remember when I first heard that this would be a lifelong recovery...so discouraged that it would always be with me. The years have rolled by and I am able to see things with totally different eyes. I look back at my 27 years of journal entries and I can see when various levels of progress and healing have been realized...when anger became strength and determination, when frustrations became steps forward, when shame became courage and when responsibility shifted to its rightful owner.. While the work of learning to live with new ways of thinking has been exhausting, it is well worth the effort!! Reading journals shows my old ways of living as a victim...a decided contrast to the survivor life I am living today!! I remain a life in progress!
You are so strong and I am in awe of your strength, dignity, and courage. You stating your truth no matter what is a testament of someone who is already taking the steps towards healing. Stay strong and remember the truth doesn't need defending it just is. Much love.
A song for you dear. Sincerely.

I know how that’s feels. It’s horrible I was molested for 7+ years and still blame myself but you have to remember the you were manipulated and brain washed into it. It’s not our fault that it happened to us.
No matter how bad the days get remember, we were children & had no chance to fight back, you survived 🤍
Don’t blame yourself love it’s not your fault. Please try to seek as much help as you can. There are tons of resources on TH-cam and google. Stay safe!!💙

I was molested by my older cousin from about 8-11. I never spoke out about it because I live in Alabama and the “cousin lover” stereotype always disgusted me. I never wanted to talk about it. I was groomed into it because I looked up to my cousin so much. He was my hero and always babysat me. I still struggle to talk about it and no one in my family knows, except maybe my little brother because I remember him witnessing it sometimes. It’s still hard.
I'm sorry that happened to you
I'm sorry you went through that. You are worthy of love, to live and be loved. Be gentle with yourself. You did not ask for that. It is not your fault. Be beautiful and strong always. You've done good here.

My half brother was 4 years older than me. I was 12. I don’t remember most of it
I'm sorry it happened to you also
I was molested by my mom's best friend when I was eleven and thirteen. I had known him since I was seven, he had practically seen me grow up, and the realization that he was sexually turned on by my body disgusted me and made me feel dirty. After it happened, I kept quiet because I wasn't ready to talk about it and I didn't think that anyone would believe me. It took me four years to finally tell my mom, and throughout those four years I had to keep seeing him, which is how it happened twice. I was afraid that if I showed discomfort or told him "no" that he would get angry and possibly hurt me. I constantly had nightmares, flashbacks whether I was awake or sleeping, and I became very suicidal. It took every ounce of my being to not end my life, and now here I am, almost 16 years old, and I can't imagine taking my life as I now have so many hopes and goals I wish to accomplish. To anyone out there that is currently going through or has been through something traumatic, it does get better with time, I promise.
I am so sorry love that you went threw similar trauma. if you need a friend you got one in me, follow my instagram @shaylenabrie

Thank you for sharing i hate when things like this don't get handled but they can never get handled if no one speaks up an when no one speaks more that creates way more victims
