I decided to take care of my mother due to the fact that none of my siblings could get along with her (she was very hard on us all her life).... We always had conflict in our home, and I shielded myself so that I wouldn’t be affected by what she said to me. I [...]
I had illicit relations with a married man and ended up pregnant, and had an abortion because I didn’t want my family to find out. From then until now I have continued to have remorse.... What I did is heavy on my conscience, and I am experiencing anxiety and distress.... I need your help because [...]
I have started attending a Christian church, and I like the teaching and the activities. However, I have long-time friends who do things that the church does not approve of.... I don’t believe that those friends are bad people. As a matter of fact, I think highly of them, as they and their families have [...]
More than two months ago I went out with some friends to celebrate the birthday of one of them. We ended up going to dance in a discotheque. All was going well until a guy that I didn’t know asked me to dance and, since I had been drinking, I danced indecently. What I did [...]
My case goes back to my childhood. When I was five years old I was raped many times, day after day, perhaps for a year. I don’t think my father ever knew, but everytime I remember, I am filled with guilt, bitterness, and the powerlessness of not being able to do anything about it.... [...]

Before we were married, I forced my wife to have an abortion. For a long time we have been sorry for that evil decision, and now, after nine years, we would like to have a child; but she can’t get pregnant. All of the medical exams have come out fine and there is no physical [...]
I am a twenty-four-year-old woman. My two brothers sexually abused me when they were thirteen and fourteen years old and I was between six and seven years old. I feel guilty because they would give me some money or a piece of candy and I never told on them. Please help me know if I [...]
I got divorced. I marked my children for life. I threw away eleven years of marriage, and all because of being selfish.... Now my ex-wife says that I abandoned them and ruined her life (even though technically the divorce was by mutual consent), and that I marked and ruined the lives of my children. I [...]
I have been working in a fast food restaurant for eight months. Every day I observed my coworkers taking money from the cash register and stealing it without a second thought.
