What's a secret you won't share with anyone in person, but you are willing to share anonymously?

My family went on a trip to Florida when I was 15. This was years ago. My step dad and I left early to travel back home because he had to work and I wanted to hangout with my friends. Keep in mind through out this, my step dad has raised me since I was 5 years old. Anyways, while it was just him and I at home, I went to take a shower one day and noticed a sketchy black wooden box in the bathroom closet. I looked closer and there clearly a hole with a camera lens facing out of it. I got totally freaked out and threw a towel over it immediately. I didn’t tell anyone for years. It came up again when I got older and my boyfriend came to live at my parents with me for a bit. He had bought me a webcam for my birthday so I could web chat with my family in Pennsylvania. One day while my parents were out of town and we were about to have sex, we noticed my webcam light was on although there were never any camera apps open. I somehow found out that my “parents” had installed some type of spy cam shit to my computer. When I told my mom about it and questioned her she said it was both of them making sure we weren’t “up to no good”. It was then that I brought up to her the bathroom camera incident. My step dad tried to say that he did it because I took too long of showers and he was trying to time how long I took or something along those lines. My mom defended him, “Do you really think your dad would do that? Do you really think he’s that sick?!” Uh yeah I fucking do. He could’ve used the stopwatch on his phone but he put a CAMERA IN THE BATHROOM. It haunts me to this day, honestly. I think he’s a perv but I don’t want to believe it.... My mom is brainwashed by him and always has been. I was also raped when I was a teenager and the guy went around telling people he has sex with me.... my then best friend found out and when I told her that wasn’t what happened she didn’t believe me.
