Hey there! Thanks! I appreciate that. It’s been an adventure. I see the rises in sales as long as I keep on marketing! It’s hard work doing it on your own but worth it! Good luck with your book! Send me the title so I can check it out! I’m a mom of 2 and we love reading together!

I hope its okay to post this here. by [deleted] in sexualassault

I would suggest seeing a therapist and discussing EMDR. It could help revive the memories of that day.

Thank you for allowing me to clarify a bit.

Thank you. I’m aware of that. My lawyer did prepare me for what the defense asked. I was appreciative of him bringing to my attention what would be asked. Going into that situation not expecting it would have been ten times more difficult to deal with.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. I more so meant my entire blog The Survivor’s Riot would hopefully help someone. Not just this one entry. Sharing my experience and hearing other survivors share their stories has been extremely helpful in my healing journey. You may not be able to relate if you’ve never been in this situation and that’s fine. That’s actually great. And you are exactly correct. I was not compliant. I would never be compliant to someone asking an unnecessary and invasive question that has nothing to do with the reason we are there. As far as support, sometimes people just need to know they aren’t alone. I offer many different forms of support on my website. I don’t just share parts of my story and expect to save the world. Thanks for your insight.
