Facing Down Evil in One’s Family
Question
Dearest Rabbi,
I am at the "end of my wits."
My own mother's sister raped me when I was all of four years of age and again at fourteen years of age.
How do I "even" deal with "this..?"
"This" being incest and in my own family.
I am struggling mightily day by day to "cope" with the devastation and the long term consequences (sequelae in psychological "jargon").
I am fifty-eight years of age and I have not to date had one single relationship romantic, dating, anything at all.
