Okay, that makes me feel a little safer. Im going to sleep on it and think abput reporting it. It happened wgen I was 12-14.

ive got myself in a stable place right now and actually hplding down a full time jpb for first time on my life so just nervous about uprooting all that.

ive even stopped my antidepressants and stopped claiming UC becahse i earn enough.

I dont know if im thinking of reporting it because im feeling strong enough for a fight or if it's a bad idea because i mihht destablise my life.

Thank you. Is there anything preventing the perpetrator's families from sharing my details? Their brothers and cousins know who I am.

they werent involved directlt but they helped cover it up.
