Standing in my truth

I did it. I shared my story. I can’t believe after so many years of silence and isolation, I can now bravely stand in my truth - publicly.

It’s been a few days and the response so far on Facebook (that’s where I posted the first blog post) has been very supportive and loving ❤️

Messages that remind me that I’m not alone, that the shame won’t kill me, and that I’ve come such a long way in the past year. I wouldn’t have been able to type this out on my phone a year ago; my hands would have been trembling way too much (my hands still get cold from the CPTSD but it isn’t unbearable any longer).

I’ve create what I believe will be the logo for this site. It’s definitely a work in progress but I want to get started - not wait til everything’s perfect.

The details will sort themselves out.

It feels great to have a space to share my thoughts!!

I did it 🥳

My goal is to heal my own wounds and then bring that strength and knowledge to other potential victims. This is a kind and compassionate space. I have endured more abuse in my life than any soul should…abusive behaviors of any kind will not be tolerated ❤️

Can’t wait to connect with other humans. And if you’re reading this and not sure about reaching out, that’s okay. Just know that you aren’t alone and if you’ve been violated by your therapist, doctor, priest or other trusted professional - we see you ❤️

And we’re stronger together.
