I need to hear myself say the words

by

 

For nearly eight years, I heard my abuser tell me...if you say anything, someone will die. And so, now--20 years later, I can't speak my trauma. I've held it in for so long, that the words just won't come out anymore. But I still see the pictures in my mind and live the horror everyday. How do I get past this? How can I finally speak the words that have been bottled up for so long?
