This can be triggering to sensitive people btw (sex/grooming/r*pe)

This is kinda new to me. I haven't had this triggered in such a long time.
Talking the basics, when I was around 12yo, my not so bright and very hormonal mind got me groomed by a pedo group on the internet.
It messed me up in a lot on tiny ways I just begun to understand after being an adult.
Like the way I turned like a masoquist and how I have problems defying orders and other things.
That being said. I ended up have kinks for BDSM and other things, and I haven't been triggered with these for at least 12 years.
I haven't found a safe place to talk about these desires in a long time, and found a game that deals with these things. It seemed tame, not dealing with blood or gore like some games do.
But alas. It had a specific scene with drugs and r*pe. And at first I thought nothing of it, not my first rodeo, but with time, I notice myself tense and anxious. And in an hour found myself panicking and completely alone in my house, and have been already very depressed these last weeks. I couldn't breathe or think right, and had no one to talk or touch.
It was... Horrible. Im still now feeling the effects of it, even after a day and a meditating for half a hour. I feel suicidal and touch starved and very ... vulnerable rn.
I'm not sure what I wanted with this rant. I can't deal with this alone but also I have no one right now. So I'm kinda stuck here. In a tar pit of emotions.

I'm sorry you're going through this.

That's awful. Unfortunately there are people like that out there. It's not your fault, you were just vulnerable and got exploited.
I ended up have kinks for BDSM and other things, and I haven't been triggered with these for at least 12 years.

I think in principle there could be some online forums where you could talk about these things, the problem being the issue of safety. You could get some good feedback and support, but there would probably also be people like the ones who groomed you lurking there too. I don't know if you could get support from a moderator or a friend who could also be a forum member, but maybe (in other words, they would watch what you posted and would push back against anyone giving you aggressive replies). I think many forums let you turn off private messages and also keep your whole profile private.

I hope something can help.

Sending hugs if you would like hugs
