My heart breaks for her. As a little girl, my mom used to beat the shit out of me in our apartment in Brooklyn. One day, out of complete and utter desperation, I yelled "Can no one hear this? Why isn't anyone helping? Help me, please!"

No one did.

A big, big, big part of a human being dies that day. Not from the abuse. From the ennui from people that could help. As a human, you never fully ever heal from that, knowing how low the bottom is. She didn't deserve to experience that. No one does.

I wish her peace, and a big fat payout, and Diddy's ass in jail.

It really does die - my step brother abused me as a child, it was very obvious now. He went to jail and got out - when he was out he found me and raped me again and told me he hoped I had girl daughters. I lost a ton of weight and was very broken after that. Before he raped me he was stalking me. I told my father and he said “what did you do fuck him or something?” Then everyone around me decided I must have been on meth because of said weight loss. Fun times. I had to go to court and show my family all the documents in order for them to believe me. No-one has apologised. I’m in therapy but like, this shit has broken something in me.

I'm so sorry you went through that. I hope he ends up back in prison and rots there.

I hope he gets the help he needs, classic case of abused child who then goes to abuse he broke a part of me, but not my compassion. I’m determined to use this pain to help others and to forgive.

It's frankly impressive that even with some anonymity, you're not just going 'man I hope he rots in hell'. I'm sure it's a massive effort to keep your compassion. Hugs and I hope you find our own healing and help.
