Exactly. No one talks about it. You try to forget and put it behind you...until about the 3rd suicide attempt, or the 23 hour crying jag for no reason leaves you stunned, or you realize that you have chunks of your childhood you don't remember.
Anyhow, everyone I've know in my life whose been molested, only a tiny percentage has really came done anything about it...or even talked about it....most keep it as a quite secret.
It comes out in support groups, or during some kind of crisis or just after 3 Margaritas on a girls night out when you get all weepy. :)
I also have a theory. Like the boy in the Sixth Sense who could see dead people, I do honestly believe that molested kids literally pass onto a different plain of existence and they see the world through different, dark eyes. And like recognizes like. That's probably why I knew of so many horror stories growing up while innocent others saw the world as marshmallow cream.
I saw what others could not see, I could see others like me also.
I've heard said to me that before especially in relation with battered wives as well.
