Been struggking and I don't know who to turn too. Im a 26yo male. When I was 10 I was sexually assaulted by a 14yo male who I trusted as a friend. Before the assault he tried to from me, teaching me to masturbate and the such.

This trauma led to depression and a misdiagnosis of bipolar disorder for nearly 10 years. Only the last 2 years have I learned about having BPD and been going to therapy maybe the last year. I've made progress, but the few things I can't shake and therapist says I may never shake, is be ing distant and untrustworthy if men, and also a hypersexual personality.

It makes it really hard to make and keep friends. Anyone have advice?
