Healing, to me, is a constantly evolving. It started with accepting what had happened to me. I hope that one day I will confide in someone about my experience and truly heal from it.

You are still here despite everything. You are the strongest, most resilient person. Keep going, the pain may never go away, but it will fade with time, I promise you that.

Like everything no matter how painful - this too will pass - and you will make it out the other end.

It is never too late - there are skilled people out there who will make a difference.

Healing is the hardest part of being assaulted. Living with the guilt, shame and embarrassment makes it feel impossible. Speaking up and getting support allowed me to begin my healing journey. It’s not linear, but every day makes me stronger.

Love yourself, be kind to yourself, spend money on yourself, you don't need to forgive yourself as you did nothing wrong

Healing to me means overcoming victim mentality and stepping into my power. It means letting go and forgiving so that I can be free. It means helping others to find their power and see the light within themselves. It means being grateful for the challenges that I have overcome and have made me stronger. Healing means surrendering to a higher power.
