CONTENT WARNING: CONTAINS SENSITIVE CONTENT AND MAY BE TRIGGERING FOR SOME READERS. Are you a victim of sexual assault? If yes, I am deeply sorry for all of the heartache, sleepless nights, triggers, and healing you have had to endure. Everyone copes with it much differently, and I am so sorry that you had to go through that. We are survivors, and I hope you find peace someday. If not, you have no idea what it is like. Our bodies are our own, and no one should ever do anything to jeopardize our bodies. When someone makes a selective decision to take advantage of you for their pleasure, it damages so much. You suddenly feel as though your dignity is stripped entirely away from you. You lay there helplessly, wanting to scream for help, but fear takes over. You can’t cry, and you can’t even scream. You cannot say anything. Your body goes into complete shock, and you freeze at that moment. Once it is over, you have no idea what to do, say, or think. You probably did not fathom ...
I hope that you find comfort and peace to keep living your life. We are all in this together.
