I'm so sorry to hear that you have to carry such a heavy burden. I, too, had a stepfather and uncle who were physically and sexually abusive to me. My stepfather would "rent" me to my uncle and beat me if I put up any kind of resistance to it. I was 6 when it started and 10 when I finally broke free. I'm 47 now. Even at this age, certain situations cause me panic attacks. I know that there is nothing I can say that will erase what has been done to you, but I'd like to give you a little hope. You're not alone. If you ever need to vent, I'll listen. I am lucky enough to have been helped by a wonderful therapist and have had years to heal and move on. If I can share some of that help with you, it would make me happy. I've learned that, over time, things can get better. At first, it doesn't feel like they ever will, but each day sucks just a little less and each attack passes a second or two faster than the last. With love and support from my husband, children and family, my panic attacks now only happen at two very specific and very avoidable times. I won't lie and tell you it was easy. It was hell. But I made it through thanks to the people who cared about, and for, me. I'd like to believe the same can happen for you. If I can be part of that support for you, even for a moment, I'd like to do it.
If you'd like to talk, feel free to mail me here. If not, I understand. I'm a complete stranger and talking about it can be like reliving it all. Even if you don't talk to me, I hope you do have people you can talk to. As painful as it is, sometimes you have to open a wound to clean out the infection that can hide deep within. Regardless of our future contact, I sincerely wish the very best and happiest life ahead for you.
I send my best wishes and lovingly thoughs to both of you.

Thank you so much, both of you <3 It warms my heart to know that strangers care for me so deeply (´；u；`) And I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Mameiha! I hope from the bottom of my heart that you and your family all live happy lives together <3
They really need to add a trigger warning in bold for the last chapter. I hope you well away from that bastard. PTSD triggers are just horrible. It hope you feel better.
*I hope
They really do... Don't worry, I haven't seen him since I found out. And thank you for your concern, dear! ^^ <3
Please do have a Merry Christmas and a Wonderful Mew Year. Best Regards to you (⌒♡⌒)
As a person who has a pedophile as her father I can unfortunately relate to Rio's feelings so much.. And that's why it was really hard reading the backstory for me.
It triggered my PTSD..... If only I had someone else as my biological father but NOOO, IT JUST HAD TO BE THAT FUCKER. ._.
