I just don't know how to handle this... what do I do? Someone help please...!
Question: I just don't know how to handle this!.!.!. what do I do!? Someone help please!.!.!.!?
I'm a 20 year old college student, and I have my share of problems; I was sexually abused as a child, I was sexually assaulted as a teen and well I'm not exactly doing well emotionally; sometimes even minor situations are too hard for me to handle because I carry so much pain through my life!. Friends are slightly comforting but I am MUCH more comfortable talk to "adults" (like teachers and such), The comfort, empathy and understanding they provide has been my refuge this last little while!. One of my teachers in particular is someone with whom I feel I can really trust, and open up to; but this is my last week in her class!. When I opened up to her about my past once before, she was very welcoming and offered to listen, but I don't know how far I can take that!.!.!. Did I lose out on the chance by being too afraid to talk to her about it again!? If not, how do I tell her that I really trust her, and feel that she's the only one I can open up to!? I just don't know what to do! I'm so confused!Www@Answer-Health@Com
