Hi everyone- I'm Brian, a 31 year old male. My partner recovered incest memories about a year and a half ago. We've been through a lot since then. She has...
Hi Brian and welcome to this group. As far as support groups in NYC I would contact a victims resource center and they can probably let you know of some. But...

Brian, I know it is tough but her rejection of closeness (sexual or otherwise) isn't a rejection of you. That is the hardest part I think to not take it...
Hello, Brian As many have already said, this is a great place for help. I came here over 6 monyhs ago. This site and the people here saved my sanity. My wife...
Thanks everyone for everyone for responding. I appreciate it. Are there any chat rooms for partners of survivors? I have the "Allies" book, but honestly, I...
Unfortunatley for us, that is what we can do. We can be supportive of our SO's but for the most part we can look inward and make choices based upon the...
I would have to say, for myself, that you really can't read enough...because it is so easy to forget in a stressful moment what you read and embrace...
Hi everyone my husband has been away working for the last month, which has given me some time to do a lot of soul searching. Quick recap of situation, have...
Subject: What would you do? What would you do? You make the choice; Don't look for a punch line. There isn't one. Read it anyway. My question to all of you is:...
Hey Scott, I just wanted to write and say that you sound GREAT!!!!!!!! I'm very happy for you. That was very well put and I can tell that you are in a very...

Hi Tazgraz, So sorry to hear of your troubles. I'm wondering if alcohol has been a factor in each of the situation's your wife found herself in (compromising...
She was drinking socially, but she was not drunk or even buzzed. The therpist thinks it was the disassociation. Knowing my wife as well as I do, I know that...
In fact the therapist is positive it is disassociation, due to the described feeling of numb and emotionless during the act. Also little things like not...
That's good she doesn't have an issue with alcohol, but very sad to hear she'd end up in such a predicament that is so hurtful to you both. It is almost like...
I have to believe that the predicament was unintentional. The classic adult ramifications of what happened to her she has. She truly is powerless in those...
