a place for victims of sexual abuse, rape, incest and the friends, family and significant others that feel helpless. //I am a twenty year old survivor of sexual abuse and incest. I started this blog to understand my struggle and thought maybe sharing it would help. I am currently working on my undergrad in social work so I can spend the rest of my life helping people effected by sexual abuse, incest and rape understand and heal. Please feel free to reach out, but please know I'm doing the best I can just like you.
