I loved your summary of what happens in incest. Although I knew each one individually, the whole group rarely coalesced.
I think the dreams are coming because my sister, who was often abused with me, is getting counseling. For the first time in decades we are able to just talk about what how it was growing up. She know remembers our dad telling her that if she told it would destroy our family and it would be her fault. She was eight and stayed silent. Our dad told me the same thing. I told everyone I could, but no one believed me.. not even my family. Our conversations are not centered around the actions of our father, but being able to just talk, knowing that we are both safe for each other.
It's something I've alerted my counselor to.. but we've agreed to letting the stuff come up, acknowledge it and keep trying to clear my plate of the current crap before going taking that on.
