Thanks for this. I’m so sorry you were hurt and exploited.

But how did you find T.E.L.L. at first? Did you look the topic up online?

You also spoke to therapists- did you have a difficult time deciding who to trust? Were you afraid to give the abusers name? Were you afraid the matter would be taken out of your hands?

We don’t need to pm, the abuse in my instance happened years ago. T.E.L.L didn’t exist way back then and people weren’t readily online at that time.
I’ve already reported it and went through criminal, civil and licensing board cases about it. I’m mostly wanting to process (for me) how difficult it was to know who to trust and know who to tell. I wondered if anyone else had similar difficulties or not.
