Getting support
You deserve to feel safe.
If you've been sexually assaulted or raped, it was not your fault. You did not deserve this.
​
Sex without consent is not sex. Sexual violence can be dangerously traumatising.
​
Trauma can feel like you are stuck; stuck in a situation, stuck in your body. Soon, this frozen feeling can turn into numbness, flashbacks, irritability, a feeling of not being safe.
You do not deserve to feel like this.
Sexual violence is an outright violation of your legal rights. It is you, and only you, that should decide what happens to your body. Sexual violence is a crime.
It is never too late to seek justice for yourself.
'Talk therapy helps me accept the trauma and victim I had been when I was raped.
Coupled with writing, journaling, safe sex, open communication, necessary outlets of anger and sadness, and supportive friends and family, I have slowly moved forward in my "healing". Every journey is different, but this is mine.'
- Luce
