Dear Jacob:

What you tell yourself at the end of the day is relevant if what you tell yourself is true. I mean, if you tell yourself things just to make yourself feel better, no matter true or not, it won’t help you.

I communicated with many members about childhood sexual experimentation for years (that years-long thread has been deleted), so maybe I can help you. Would you like to share about that experimentation in a non-detailed, general kind of way?
