Sibling Sexual Abuse – 3 Survivors share their experiences and healing
Sibling sexual abuse is a particularly confusing and messy type of child sexual abuse that is prevalent, yet still often overlooked in studies and advocacy. It impacts not only the survivors, but the entire family dynamic as parents struggle to balance the needs and possible traumas of the abusing child with the needs and trauma of the child being abused.
In this episode, three survivors share their experiences of sibling abuse, including:
- memory loss/dissociation,
- self-blame,
- how their family structure and events were impacted, and
- what has helped them to heal.
