Today I’m posting a helpful checklist for sexual abuse survivors about the effects of sexual abuse on your life today. (Whew, that was a long sentence). Find the checklist at Deeper Church.

Here’s a snippet:

In Your Sexual Relationship:

•    You are afraid to have sex. In fact, if sex were suddenly erased from planet earth, you would throw a party.
•    You can’t have sex—it hurts or it doesn’t work right.
•    You feel guilty for not being “enough” for your spouse, but have no idea how to heal in this area enough to want sex. It’s more duty than joy.
•    You resent your spouse for needing sex.

Find out how sexual abuse also affects your emotional health, relationships, daily life, identity, and your health.

If you’d like to do something tangible to help sexual abuse victims heal, check out my crowdfunding site here for Not Marked.
