This article gives an overview of Freud, Ferenczi, and Winnicott's theories and some contemporary psychoanalytic views on child sexual abuse. By comparing their theories on psychological trauma, the authors demonstrate how the confusion of tongues, splitting, the false self, and cumulative trauma connect to secrecy and helplessness, making it difficult for the child to access support. The child's secrecy can be seen as a result of internal conflict and their struggle against the abuse. It also reinforces the compliant self, creating confusion and dissociation, ultimately making the child more vulnerable. The authors argue that the experience of being forced to keep secret may be traumatic and that rejection by the potential protector will increase helplessness. This implies that trauma in child sexual abuse can be cumulative rather than a sudden shock. Most child victims come from dysfunctional families where the sense of helplessness is acute and passed down between generations. Therefore, to understand the psychological impact of sexual abuse inflicted upon a child, one must not only look at the traumatic event, symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder, and behavior. We must focus on the child's subjective experience, including the impact of the sexual trauma on personality development and the internal conflicts caused by environmental factors such as family dynamics.
