I was raped 4 years ago, in my home, while on a date. I dealt with extreme victim blaming and slut shaming by detectives. In an effort to survive the pain of the memories, I blocked out the events for 3 years. On a December night, I was triggered and my brain swelled up with memories from being raped. I tried to reopen my case, it did not work. I made this blog in an attempt to foster more discussion about rape, rape culture, date rape, victim blaming, and victim rights. I want to help save the next girl.
I am still working on being happy [alone] I come off as the happiest person in a crowd. It is when I am [alone] that I hear the past & see the struggle
that feeling you get when you realize you are SO different than the members of your “family”
i just don’t fit in anywhere
