I have been hearing one of the many whispers on Twitter, he is known as @24KAuGuy. Not his real name of course but it is what we know him by. There are a lot of what I call The Whisperers on twitter each of us breaking the silence about Child Abuse but for some unknown reason I am drawn to his tweets. His tweets ( notes of comment ) make everyone sit up and listen. Maybe its because I recognize his pain as I now recognize my children's pain. He may be just one voice on twitter but there are many whisperers behind him and we make one loud voice ! @24KAuGuy is not ready to blog yet but has allowed me to publish some of his twitter comments.
Not my real name
All I have to give the world is my truth....

By the time I was 7 I knew my place in the world was to be used...hell i think I knew that before I could even talk...So many #male #survivors, so few resources for healing...asking for help is not asking for too much, is it?
*
And that feeling..of being worthless..of being the lowest form of life..of not being even human..that's what #sexual #abuse has left me with
*
Why would educators see a 12-13yo boy who was so withdrawn from his studies just assume he was not capable of learning?
*
Some of the most confusing things for me as a boy being #sexually #abused was my body reactions...used against me...
So pleased you have given @24KAuGuy I feel a connection to him.
ReplyDeleteI hope he heard me when I told him we would wait right here until he knows that he is lovable.
He has much to share-a true warrior, brave and true.
We are only truly strong together and all unique.

This voice speaks volumes. I am so sad there are so many who are having this kind of pain. The last quote speaks so deeply to me as I remember going through that myself. Thank you for finding your voice. The world needs to hear what you have to say.
