Should I

I am feeling some guilt about not telling my mom and in the end about not telling my family for the sexual assault. I am not sure whether I should or not. I mean that I know she hurt me for 17 and 1/2 years with physical, and especially verbal abuse. But am I inconsiderate for not telling my mom about this???????
Should I tell her??????
Will it even matter???????????

Oh well who the hell knows

I'm not sure on this one. I wouldn't say that you owe telling anyone anything. Just do what makes you feel comfortable. Usually we feel guilt for a reason (if someone else isn't making us feel guilty). Listen to your heart. Either way, maybe you need to just give it more time to decide because once it's done you can't take it back. I hope this helps.

I agree, follow your heart. Tell who you want to tell. foreverhurt
