Healing to me means getting back to the level of happy I was before all of this. I miss that girl and I want the world to see her again. She’s strong, confident, and beautiful. I just have to find her again.

Healing is ongoing. Healing is a rollercoaster. Healing can feel frustrating and powerful and ugly and beautiful. Healing is surviving another day. Healing is finding strength even when you think you don’t have any (because you always do, it’s already in you).

This is a interactive blog I created to share my sexual assault story, and my journey to healing. I only hope that others will have the courage to speak their truth. We all have a story and we are all in this journey to healing together.

Healing is being not thinking that this defines who I am. Healing is walking pass him on campus and smiling to myself because he doesn’t have any hold over me anymore. Healing is powerful.

Healing means everything to me- And honestly you are healing every single day!! every single day!! little by little.

Healing means taking control over my life that I have never had. Healing would mean to me that I am so much stronger than my trauma and that my older brother, my ex, and the guy I went on the date with, do not win, I do.

Healing is so many things... accepting what happened, sitting with how I feel, reading other's stories, telling trusted people what happened, writing, drawing, walking...

You are not alone. I hope you are growing in love and beauty everyday. I am with you.

You are never alone. That traumatic experience does not define you, it does not define your worth, it does not get to dictate your life. You are still your own beautiful soul.

Your story is enough for you to be powerful. You do not have to become an advocate for your story to mean something. You are enough just as you are.

Healing is being able to cope with day-to-day life with the realities of being a survivor, and connect with other survivors for mutual support.

You are strong, and you will overcome this. This isn’t who you are, it’s part of your story, and someday you will use it for better.

I promise you aren't alone. It may feel it when you are in the darkest times or carry all the shame and guilt. Just let it go, the stress and physical pain you carry is not worth what hurt you in the first place. When you keep hurting from someone else, you put the power back into their hands. Take control.
