Imagine being stuck in a cycle of abuse and trauma, with seemingly no way to break free of what you were going through. Then, imagine that when you finally do seek help, being met with stigma and disgust surrounding the nightmare you were stuck in.
This is often what it can feel like to be an incest survivor. Whether you're being bombarded with anger from family members who want you to be silent, or supposed "allies" nonchalantly making incest jokes on the internet, navigating the world as an incest survivor can be painful. The #MeToo movement has given marginalized people a platform to speak out about sexual assault, but some incest survivors feel our current conversations about sexual silence have failed to be inclusive of them, their experiences, and the unique discrimination they face.

Though incest is routinely overlooked when addressing sexual assault awareness and prevention, it is pervasive in the U.S. and internationally. The Rape, Abuse, And Incest National Network (RAINN) estimates that at least 34 percent of the perpetrators in cases of child sex abuse are a family member of the victim. While fathers are reported to be the most common perpetrators of incest, according to a study published in 2014, any family members, including siblings, mothers, cousins, uncles, aunts, and other close relatives, can be a perpetrator, just as any person, of any gender, can be a victim.
Incest is a truly insidious form of sexual violence. Most children inherently trust their close family members, and when incest occurs, it can be profoundly shocking, confusing, and shameful for the survivor.
“I was eight years old [when my father started molesting me]. Like a lot of little girls, my father was my idol. Nothing was bigger than him. He was my best friend. He was someone I trusted and loved,” Julia, an incest survivor, tells Bustle. “It’s natural to feel like, ‘Oh my god, did I provoke this?’ when a person uses power to abuse — you don’t have a say in what’s happening.”
Moreover, victims are are often silenced by the people who they should be able to rely on the most: other family members.
Anne* says she was assaulted on multiple occasions. She tells Bustle, “I didn’t tell my mother about [the abuse] until years later, and then she basically blamed me for ‘putting myself in that position.’ And she still keeps contact with my cousin who assaulted me, despite me telling her how much it hurts me that she does.”
For Summer* the abuse started after she immigrated from the Caribbean to the U.S. to live with her father and stepmother when she was 16 years old. "The sexual abuse stopped when I started my first year of college. The emotional and physical abuse continued," she says. "The healing process was not an easy journey."
When she told her relatives about the abuse, she was discouraged from reporting it. "They were all afraid of him. He has just spent his life terrorizing everyone came he across," she tells Bustle. "By speaking about it, you’re basically dismantling some sort of legacy that they’ve conned themselves into thinking exists."
Dr. Patti Feuereisen, a psychologist, author of Invisible Girls: The Truth about Sexual Abuse, and founder of GirlThrive, tells Bustle it can be impossible for incest survivors to get away from their abusers. A majority of children on depend on their family members for guidance, as well as financial and emotional support. While every form of sexual assault is terrible and should be condemned, incest victims rarely have a safe place to escape, and they're most vulnerable when they're at home.
Sexual abuse in childhood can have devastating consequences for both the mental and physical health of survivors. In 2007, child psychiatrists said post-traumatic stress disorder didn't fully cover the extent of the symptoms they saw in young patients who had faced trauma. They proposed adding "developmental trauma disorder" to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, according to the American Psychological Association, to recognize "exposure to multiple, chronic traumas" at a young age.
Experts are still debating whether developmental trauma disorder should be added to the psychiatric manual, but the consequences that result from experiencing trauma at a young age are impossible to ignore. Julia says she experienced suicidal ideation at 12 years old. "I couldn’t go to anybody [for help], because how could I?" she says. "I thought, 'I’m dying tomorrow.'" She didn't attempt suicide only because her father started to leave her alone.
As research has shown, incest survivors may engage in cutting, eating disorders, substance use, and other self-injurious behaviors to cope with their trauma — until they are in a safe, supportive place away from their abuse, and able to seek trauma-informed mental health treatment. Other severe mental health disorders, such as borderline personality disorder, depression, and body dysmorphic disorder also have a high correlation with childhood sexual abuse.
Furthermore, Dr. Feuereisen explains that it's not uncommon for some childhood survivors to develop hypersexuality in response to the abuse, while others may experience a complete aversion to sex and sexuality. However, she says that, "Both are reactive [responses to trauma], and not forever."
Given how traumatizing incest is to the victim, and to our communities and families, it remains under-addressed in our society — despite the push to empower sexual assault survivors with the #MeToo Movement and Time’s Up campaign. Author Mia Fontaine offered up an explanation for this in a 2013 article for The Atlantic:
This sentiment still rings true; incest is an uncomfortable topic that many of us, even those of us who have lived through incest, don’t want to address. Many incest survivors may feel responsible for keeping their families intact, despite the abuse that has occurred (or that’s still occurring). Other survivors may not remember the abuse. For all these reasons and more, incest is underreported, according to the journal Social Work Today, though there aren't exact estimates as to by how much.
“In my experience, incest, even once revealed, is something to cover up. There is no justice because it’s family,” Anne says. “Despite me telling multiple relatives about what has happened, they still insist on keeping up appearances and being friends with my abuser. They tell me to keep quiet about it, and blame me for it happening in the first place. There is no cutting off ties. Just shame and guilt for me, the victim."
The path to recovery and healing can become less challenging for incest survivors when we address the stigmas and myths associated with this kind of sex abuse that tend to be ignored.
"I wish that people who haven’t experienced incest knew that just because someone is family, it doesn’t make them a good person — whether that be the abuser themselves, or the people who continue to support the abuser. Sexual assault is never OK,” Anne says. “Sexual assault can happen anywhere, even at home, a place normally associated with safety and security, and with people you should trust to love and protect you.”
"We tend to sit in silence and fear and shame and guilt that really doesn’t belong to us," Summer says. "We know that once we start standing in our truth, we’re going to upset a lot of people. It’s about time that we as incest survivors get to a place where we realize it’s OK to just piss people off."
"It's crucial to talk about sexual abuse, particularly incest, when you are young — as a teenager, or in your twenties," Dr. Feuereisen tells Bustle. "We have to trust and believe any [person] who comes forward. We have to understand they couldn’t get out."
Julia tells Bustle she believes talking about trauma is the only way to process it, and she hopes children who are being abused will realize they aren't alone. "I’ve decided to really use my story as a means of healing," she says. Julia wants survivors to know they shouldn't blame themselves. "You were taken advantage of," she says.
Summer says she also internalized a lot of harmful rhetoric about her abuse. "Be willing to challenge your story," she says. "We have told ourselves so much bullsh*t."
However, the message is not only that we need to be more willing to openly talk about incest as a community, but that survivors can ultimately heal, feel healthy, and lead fulfilling lives. Research is showing us more and more every day that, with the help of mental health professionals, our brains can actually be rewired after trauma.
Dr. Feuereisen says that a practice she often uses with the incest survivors is called remapping. In remapping, similar to exposure therapy, a survivor will mentally revisit the space or situation in which the trauma occurred to retrain their brain to cope with those triggers. "You are taking that fear and remapping it when you take over your trauma and put it in a positive light. By remapping your experience over and over again, you make the trauma smaller," Dr. Feuereisen says.
"I want it to be clear that sexual abuse and incest is not a death sentence in any way," says Dr. Feuereisen. "You are not damaged goods. You can get better."
Hope for healing for incest survivors is not some fleeting dream — substantial evidence has proved that healing after sexual abuse is completely possible, and talking about it, without shame, is a key aspect of recovery. As our cultural discussions about how our society can eliminate sexual violence keep growing, incest survivors deserve to have a voice in the #MeToo conversation, policy, advocacy, and beyond.

Incest is illegal, controversial and morally objectionable - but after embarking on a secret relationship with her brother, Cristina Shy is campaigning on behalf of incestuous couples around the world
TO all their neighbours, Cristina and her boyfriend were like any other regular couple - they enjoyed date nights together, were wildly attracted to each other and seemed, from the outside, like the perfect match.
But they were hiding a huge secret - not only were they lovers, they were brother and sister.
Reunited as adults after being adopted as babies, Cristina and her brother - who are keeping their identities secret for fear of prosecution - fell for each other.
Incest is illegal in the US, the UK, and throughout almost the entire world - but some states have harsher penalties than others, such as Montana, Nevada, Michigan and Idaho, where incestuous couples could face life in prison.
It also poses huge genetic risks to those conceived by blood relatives, with studies suggesting that as many as 40 per cent of children whose parents are immediate blood relatives are born with serious medical conditions.
To hide their controversial love, Cristina and her brother moved across America and settled in a state where nobody knew they were related, although they don't personally see any trouble with incestuous sexual relationships.
In an exclusive interview with Sun Online, Cristina, 36, says: "As long as everybody is a consenting adult, they should be able to do whatever they want to do in their own bedrooms - it's up to them how they want to live their lives.
"Lots of people believe incest is wrong but it's only wrong because it is illegal, but there are lots of things that are illegal now that won't be in a few years."
Since she started dating her brother, legal secretary Cristina has been campaigning to help people around the world who are in sexual relationships with their blood relatives - including a double murderer who had a baby with his biological daughter.
She also believes that related couples should be allowed to have babies, despite numerous studies showing that children of incest are significantly more likely to be born with deformities or disabilities.
Cristina has had to change her name, and asked not to be pictured because she fears that she and her brother could be jailed under incest laws.
However, she doesn't agree with these laws, saying: "You can't say something is wrong just because it is illegal - because laws change all the time.
"There are already laws to protect children and vulnerable people: there are rape and sexual battery laws and I don't think incest should be included in that."
Cristina said it wasn't an instant attraction when she first met her long-lost brother after being reunited as adults, but over the weeks that followed she started to develop feelings for him.
"It took a few weeks - it was like getting to know any other stranger," she revealed. "I remember feeling really confused at first - like why am I feeling like this towards my brother?
"Then he began dropping little hints about liking me and I caught on.
"I told him it's best to be honest and assured him nothing would change and then he just kind of blurted it out. And I told him, 'I've been feeling it too'."
Cristina claims that the many physical similarities between her and her brother made them more attracted to each other, saying: "I did begin to notice how much we looked alike. We had the same everything; same eyes, hair colour, cheekbones, lips, nose – even the same hands and same feet."
Cristina is unapologetic about her love, saying many people in incestuous relationships describe their partner as their "soulmate".
"I think there's definitely more of an emotional connection than a regular couple," she says.
"You have the family dynamic and also the adult dynamic - the attraction - so it just makes it different."
Cristina says she has helped high several high profile incestuous couples come to terms with their feelings.
The people she's offered support to include Steven Pladl, 45, who married his biological daughter Katie, 20, and had a baby with her, before shooting them both in a horrific murder-suicide earlier this year.
Katie, who had been adopted as a baby, went to live with her biological parents in 2016 after tracking them down on social media.
But when Pladl separated from Katie's mother, he started a sexual relationship with Katie. The pair married in secret and had a baby together, before eventually being arrested and forced to live apart.
Just two months later, Pladl suffocated his seven-month-old baby at his home, drove to Connecticut where he shot Katie and her adoptive father and then drove to New York where he turned the gun on himself. 
But Cristina claims that the devastating murder-suicide could have been prevented if people had been more understanding towards the eventual killer, Steven Pladl.
Cristina says that Pladl was "smeared" by society, and that she "felt horrible" for him and his daughter and wife, Katie. 
“I’m not making excuses for him but it’s a real shame it got to the point where he did what he did," she says.
Cristina also helped organise legal representation for a mother and son couple who were arrested last year in New Mexico on incest charges.
As with many incest cases, Monica Mares, 38, and son Caleb Peterson, 21, were reunited as adults after he had been adopted as a baby.
The pair fell “madly in love” and lived together before they were both arrested on incest charges and faced 18 months in prison back in 2016.
In interviews at the time, mum-of-nine Monica told how Caleb was the “love of her life” and how nothing could come between them - even jail.
Cristina says these cases, and her own incestuous relationship, were caused by a condition known as Genetic Sexual Attraction or GSA.
GSA is the term for an overwhelming sexual attraction which develops between close blood relatives who were separated at a young age and then meet each for the first time as adults. 
Studies have shown that up to 50 per cent of reunions between immediate relatives who were separated at birth result in obsessive emotions.
“We know from studies that the majority of people are attracted to people who have similar features to themselves," Cristina adds.
“So when you think about how siblings who did not grow up together meet and they look similar, have similar interests, have similar dislikes - of course it’s likely they’ll be attracted to each other.
“They have so much in common - it’s what everybody dreams of - this is their perfect match.
“There is no 'ew factor' - the feeling of ‘that's my family member I don't want to even think about that'."
Cristina believes that incestuous couples should be allowed to get legally married and enjoy the same legal rights as non-related couples.
She says she and her brother - who have now split up for “typical” reasons that were nothing to do with being related - missed out on many of the things other couples take for granted such as having a wedding.
Cristina even thinks that she should have been allowed to have children with her brother if she'd have wanted, despite the serious and well-established dangers to the baby's well being.
However there are huge risks for any children the pair might have had.
Dr Carol Cooper tells Sun Online: “The main problem with blood relatives having children is that it vastly increases the risk of serious genetic conditions, including cystic fibrosis and rare but life threatening diseases like Niemann-Pick and Tay-Sachs disease.
“The latter two have recessive inheritance, meaning that carriers don’t have any symptoms and they don’t know they’re carrying the disease.
“However, when two carriers conceive a baby together, the child has a high chance of contracting the disease. You often find that some of the more serious diseases are recessively inherited, which is why it’s not a good idea for cousins to conceive children together.”
Cristina, who is now in a relationship with a man who isn’t a family member, runs a website called Lily's Gardener and a support forum which offers emotional and practical support for incest couples.
She says the forum has hundreds of members from all over the world - including the UK.
Cristina, who lives on the east coast of America, also believes that with the increase of sperm donors the issue of GSA and incestuous relationships will only grow - and she hopes society will become more understanding of GSA.
"I'm not saying these people need to go shout it from the rooftops but they should be able to live without fear of prosecution,” she says.
