I have to get this off my chest - Fletcher - 06-21-2012
If you don't want a bad time, DO NOT read this.
My little cousin is psychologically bulimic for a good number of years, at the time I saw it as "crap... why her? But... it happens". A very cruel, but logical view in my mind since it happens.
But... three weeks ago I found out something very, very disturbing.
This isn't the place to talk about it, but right now, I don't care about where I rage.
My little cousin suffers from bulimia, she destroys herself but is a genuinely lovely person, she taught me to dance a few years ago! That is a challenge!
Four weeks ago my little cousin revealed she was raped at the age of 9. Granted my cousin was not someone I saw often, but she was a very down-to-earth person that loved to sing and dance, hell, she taught me to dance! She is 17 now, and revealed the horrible truth and to knowledge, doctors put it down to bulimia.
My cousin is a self destructive person, to be honest, we only found this out in the worst possible way, she tried to kill herself, and left a letter.
When I heard about this three weeks ago, I raged, I mean REALLY raged and actually broke my wrist because I needed to release my rage, but couldn't so I punched a lot of things and got drunk and punched my wall.
I know this isn't the place to let this out, but this has been eating at my mind for ages. I haven't slept well since I heard about it. My mind, and likely soul have been damaged by the evil in society, and I'm not the one that's been the victim!
Again, sorry lads and lasses, I've needed to get this off my chest.

Not much I can say really...

If you have the opportunity, go and visit her. Sorry to hear about this news. Take some time to yourself, and I really do encourage you to go and visit her.

I'm sure I speak for most - if not all - of us when I say our best thoughts are with you and you family on this one.
This is a private and sensitive matter and deserves appropriate care and consideration, something that most likely can't be provided in a public forum. You've got it off you chest, mate, and if anyone wants to send their support, PMs work wonders.
As much as expressions of support would be welcome, you're right Fletch, this isn't the best sort of thing to be discussing publicly here. As such, I'm going to give it a close.
