I'm not 100% sure, but I think I was molested as a child. All I want to know is if it really was, because I don't know if I have a reason to be upset.
I knew the area of touch was supposed to be private and I knew abt bad touch and I was so uncomfortable but I was told it was okay because we were family. So I forgot. And then I remembered. And it made me sick to my stomach, and I feel so lost ever since. All I can think is "what the hell happened? What was that?" I feel violated, but at the same time it was another child who was only a few years older, and we were playing, and I know they can still be at fault but I wonder if it's bad enough to feel upset about. I want to tell someone, I'm so tired of keeping this to myself. Nobody else knows but I feel so ashamed that something so small is bothering me. I don't know what to do.

I mean, why would the answer to that question be no? Like in what scenario would the answer to that question be no? If you have to ask yourself the question in the first place, that’s kind of what the answer is.
ReplyHi. I am in same situation, but I am a male. I was 6 and then again at 10 through 14.
Seek a counselor and confide. Please don’t hold it in any longer. For your own sanity please tell a counselor and seek “her” advice.

ReplyWhere does the OP say that they are female? So why are you saying "but" I am a male? The OP could be a male too.
ReplyAssault. But maybe unintentional assault if the other kid didn't know that it was assault. If they knew and did it knowingly, then it's assault. If you were uncomfortable, then it is assault as you have a right to not have your body touched, especially in your private area. Even if you liked it (and you didn't) and it was your private area, it's still assault. It's very common for kids to play rough and tumble or doctors and nurses with each other, and a lot of it is done innocently. If they were an adult, then an adult would know it's wrong and it's assault. An older kid, maybe is still immature and not totally aware of boundaries. But the bottom line is, that you can feel how you want to feel about the situation.
