From people who came through it
“I was where you are eighteen months ago. Back then it was flashbacks during intimacy. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces.”
Fatou from Toulouse · been through sexual assault survivors“I was sure I'd never feel normal again. I was wrong. I keep my documents in a bag at a friend's house, just in case. Keep going, even slowly.”
Priya from Kanpur · been through sexual assault survivors“Reading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are in 2023. It was it happened at a party at uni and I couldn't see past it. I picked up the guitar again. Bit by bit it comes back. Be gentle with yourself.”
Areeba from Hyderabad · been through sexual assault survivors“No sé qué necesitas oír, pero esto es lo que a mí me habría ayudado al principio: no tienes que contárselo a todo el mundo. Yo tardé años en decírselo a mis padres y no pasa nada. Busca un abogado que te hable claro y sin prisa, aunque te dé miedo la respuesta. Y si un día no puedes más, no significa que no vayas a poder mañana. Un pie delante del otro. A mí me funciona escribir. A lo mejor a ti no. Prueba cosas. No estás sola, aunque a las tres de la mañana lo parezca.”
