Message to a Survivor
you are a survivor even if you don't feel like it. your trauma is valid, it's real.
Message of Healing
healing is continual, it never ends. to me, healing is scary. it's scary to heal and move forward from a place you are so used to being in. healing is a beautiful process that continues to evolve as you grow.
i was sexually assaulted in my house, but i don't remember how old i was or his face. it makes me feel it's not valid, but i know it happened. i was sexually abused by a teacher in pre-k, a man who i didn't know the name of. he molested me more than one occasion. he followed me to the bathroom and raped me. i tried to fight back, but a four year old doesn't have that much strength. i was sexually assaulted multiple times at gymnastic camp. she would touch me knowing it made me uncomfortable. i would try to avoid her, but it never worked. these made me feel weak, and still does at times, but i know im strong. and i know it's ok to feel the way i feel. feeling are valid and you are strong.
