Message to a Survivor

you will get through this, let it hurt, let yourself cry. don't dwell on your past, instead focus on the present.

Message of Healing

Healing is giving myself time to process my trauma, time to love myself, time to figure out who I am.

We were both in 7th grade. same gender. it started with me wearing skirts to school to boost my confidence + I really loved them! we were outside and she reached into my skirt and squeezed my butt and went for my private, I froze. I said no, does no not mean no.? I talked to one of my friends and my friend asked her to stop as well. but it continued. I texted and apologize because I didn't want to be touched that way. then it went to the bathrooms, in front of people. nobody helped me, nobody noticed. I felt alone, I felt isolated, I felt worthless. I kept getting touched, my boobs were squeezed, my bottom was squeezed, and my private was messed with, I said stop time and time again. I never spoke about it. ever. the only person who knows is my boyfriend because he cares. I still get flashbacks, I still have trauma. (you CAN and you WILL get through this, I know it. I love you so big.)
