Men Abused/Assaulted as Adults

I have a hard time believing anyone could truly "get out of" a true gun-to-head situation, but for a gun of their own. I'd sooner call BS. Everybody likes to make out like they're more than they actually are. What you lived was reality.

I am sorry for your pain. It truly does suck that the past can control our life. Few understand our pain-the memories, the body memories and the sounds or words come alive as we try to sleep, they creep into our subconscious, robbing us of the sleep
