From people who came through it
“It happened. It wasn't your fault. It's going to be hard for a while. You'll jump at noises and check the locks obsessively. That's normal. But it won't always be this loud in your head. Find one person who will listen without trying to fix it. And take the bus with a friend if you can. You will feel safe again. It just takes time.”
Trang from Da Nang F · been through victims of crime“Hi, you. I was where you are nearly four years ago. Afraid in my own house now, every single day. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.”
josecoffee · been through victims of crime“Hi, you. In 2022 I was exactly where you are. For me it was the trial. This year I did a 5k, slowly. The bad days get further apart. Hang on.”
