@BlueBay the effects of experiencing early sexual abuse goes fairly deep into our responses. I think going into a paralysed or startled response is common ... because the flood of feelings .. is so inappropriate and difficult to process.
So no, we dont think of going to sit in another carriage .. or in many women's cases, move away from abusive partners, they used to call it battered wives syndrome.
For some reason I was in denial about my own abuse, til a few months ago, and a social worker for the Royal Commission, told me I had been abused. I was fixated on my siblings and my father's sexual abuse story. My mother was totally horrible about it all, whether it was for dad, my sister or me. It seems many mothers put blinkers on ... and the hurt that creates is serious.
Hope we can get over it together .. am feeling particularly low tonight.
