Is it normal that i was molested by my brother as a kid

When I was around 6 or 7 I was molested by my older brother. I can recall the incident vividly and it haunts me and sometimes brings me to tears.. I hate my bother with a passion and no one knows why the just think it's sibling rivalry or a simple dislike but it's not I remember what he did to me and it hurts I can't tell anyone because it happened years ago.. Sometimes I pretend as if nothing happened just because I don't want anyone to know and because I'm scared no one will believe me. I'm getting tired of living with this secret. I know the real monster he is. I have hatred toward him also because of him being physically and mentally abusive to me punching in my face and my father doing nothing about it, for him calling me sluts, bitches, and hoes, for him disrespecting me infront of my friend, for him stealing all of the electronics out of my mothers house, money from family members, and my fathers wedding ring and they always allow him back in the house and forgive, but I can't because of what he did to me he took my put his hands on me and abuses me and no one does anything. I'm 20 now and I fear if I tell anyone the will ignore it and he will deny it. But the things he has done to me plays in my head and I just need to tell someone.

    How old was he? Tell the people, tell the police and let him get what he deserves.
    And forget about that. That's not your brother anymore, that's a stranger.

    I feel your pain girl. I was molested at the age of 6 by my babysitters younger brother who was 16. I was scared and didnt really know what to do so I ignored it then I finally vented to my mother about it but it was after the family moved to another community. Anyways its important to address your feelings and just ignore ppl that say hurtful things cause you are so much better than that. If it still affects you till this day, talk to someone you trust and just know that you as an individual has a right to speak up and even address it to your brother indirectly, like maybe a letter even if it is awkward so he knows how much he has hurt you, but also that you are strong and can move on. Just try to be strong and confident, and know that you are a beautiful person and did not deserve any of it. P.S. its really good that you are getting this out of your system so you can finally get some closure, you should be proud of yourself.

      Thanks for the comments. I'm working on getting therapy. I know after things like this happen to people the feel like its their fauly, but I know it wasnt mine. I just feel as if there he is suffering as we speak. Being 26 with no job, no car, little education, living out of his girlfriends car, and begging my parents for dollars daily. I have a close relationship with my mom, but I cant figure out how to tell her. Perhaps it will just happen one day, but right now my focus is bettering myself. I'm very happey you commented, because what you said made me feel so much better. Thanks You

U should've never say that to a person who is ready to reach out!! I was a kid assholes and I didn't know what to do that was my brother. N for the ass that called me a coward. Would u say that to ur children that's y people like me never reach out because idiots like the two of u don't care about peoples feelings..

    Well this actually happen to one of my neighbors, her half brother molested her and till she spoke up around age 13 or so, no one knew. I found out after the fact, cause they suddenly got really withdrawn. the worst part was he was a decent guy that i looked up to, till then of course. now he's banish from the family and it seems like she almost feels sorry for him (almost). sadly this isn't a unique case and so my best advice is to tell someone that you trust. parent, aunt, bff, whoever and lean on them for the courage to out him for what he's done. sorry i got kinda wordy there =P

      I'm so sorry to hear that. I believe the reason why as a child I didnt speak up is because I blocked it out of my memory. For the longest I never let it get to me but now it depresses me when I think about it. Thank you. Your story makes me feel like I'm not alone.
