I'm a 31 year old survivor of child molestation. For years,if I saw his family in town,I'd have panic attacks,for fear he'd be with them(he was never charged).A few weeks ago,I was in the waiting room of our local hospital's lab,waiting for my life partner to get done w/her stress test.Well,while I was waiting,a few members of his extended family came in and sat down,waiting w/one of their family members for a test to be done. Well..not only was I able to engage them in conversation,I was able to do it without feeling any of the panic I'd felt before. Is this a sign of progress for me?
