Sexual Abuse Does Not Need To Mark You

This Post was originally written by Mary DeMuth, In this post she talks about the physical, mental, emotional and relational symptoms of having experienced sexual abuse. Below are some of the symptoms that she covers along with a link to the original post
In Your Sexual Relationship:

•    You are afraid to have sex. In fact, if sex were suddenly erased from planet earth, you would throw a party.
•    You can’t have sex—it hurts or it doesn’t work right.

•    You feel guilty for not being “enough” for your spouse, but have no idea how to heal in this area enough to want sex. It’s more duty than joy.
•    You resent your spouse for needing sex.
•    You are compulsive about sex and take extreme risks in your sexual behavior.
•    You view sex as a commodity, not as a loving act between two people.
