Supporting male survivors of childhood sexual abuse.
Support for survivors, run by survivors.
Providing and campaigning for support and understanding.
moMENtum is a mutual support group for male survivors of childhood sexual abuse. We meet as equals for support and to gain an understanding of ourselves and to share information and resources.
Knowing how difficult it is, is why we are here.
As survivors ourselves, we know how difficult it can be to disclose sexual abuse and find the support you need. You will always be in control of what you say, we don’t pry, everything is at your pace and about healing from the effects of trauma and abuse. We understand it may have been a long journey to get to this point today, viewing our website and if finding support and understanding in our society and services has not been easy, many of us have found that too and that’s why we are here. In the absence of support, we began to support ourselves now in our 8th year. We have all been abused but we meet because we want to heal, find joy and ease in our lives, to be ourselves and know what that is for us.
Why would meeting other survivors help me when it’s so hard to tell anyone?
You’re always welcome here.
However you are feeling or unsure you are, please do contact us - you will always be welcome. You don’t have to be alone with this anymore and in time you can heal even if it seems impossible today.
“All of you is welcome here”
The part that really wants to be here, and the part that wishes you were somewhere else.
The part that knows and trusts yourself, and the part that doesn’t believe in yourself.
The part that stands up and defends yourself, and the part that gets walked over.
The part that knows and can express how you feel, and the part that blanks out, goes foggy, detaches.
Whatever you are feeling you are welcome here, your joy, your anger, your fear, your sadness, your shame.
Your yes and your no are welcome here.
Your experience and your knowledge as well as what you do not know, and your questions are welcome here.
Your doubts and your trust, your sceptical self and your hopeful self.
All of you is welcome here.
