Healing? You never heal from this, you might find a way to function with it shoved in the back of your mind, but you are never, ever healed from emotional wounds. Just ask anyone whose seen war, your bullet wound will heal, but not the shock of watching your best bud get his head blown off.

I believe you can heal from emotional trauma. Will you ever be the same? Most likely not. Will you ever be completely fixed? Of course not. But you can get better - which is part of the healing process.
And yes I have some emotional scars that I've had to deal with for a long time. They are still there but life can get better. You just have to ask for help. There is still beauty in the world. -

I usually don't cry from watching movies, but I did feel teary-eyed when I first saw this with my sister. It made us both upset since stuff like this still goes on today. I feel really bad for children who goes through such a terrible thing.

The first time I watched it I couldn't cry, I think I was toofor lack of a better word, shocked to react. The second time I watched it (which was like 3 days later) I sobbed like a baby. I came out of my room my eyes all red and puffy and my roommate's like "Who died?"

This was definitely my experience; I was beyond normal emotional expression after seeing it. Like you said, shocked doesn't seem to quite cover it but it's the best description I can think of -

yes the ending was one of the best drama film end scene i've ever seen and the lines
"And as we sat there listening to the carolers, I wanted to tell Brian it was over now and everything would be okay. But that was a lie, plus, I couldn't speak anyway. I wish there was some way for us to go back and undo the past. But there wasn't. There was nothing we could do. So I just stayed silent and trying to telepathically communicate how sorry I was about what had happened. And I thought of all the grief and sadness and beep up suffering in the world and it made me want to escape. I wished with all my heart that we could just leave this world behind. Rise like two angels in the night and magically disappear."
so brilliant and true, and sad for every single victim of sexual abuse because thats how you feel -

I can never cry unfortunately, but I did get choked up 3 of the 4 times I watched it. It hit me most when I was with my brother because we dealt with some heavy stuff as kids that I wish had never happened. The monologue hit me hard and made me think about it.
I also got choked up whenever Neil would feel like the coach was the only one who ever loved him.
