It happened when I was a child

If you were sexually assaulted when you were a child, it was NOT your fault.

It is possible for you to struggle to remember clearly what happened. That DOES NOT mean that what you feel about being raped or sexually abused is wrong. The brain has a way of trying to forget bad things that happened to us. The brain wants us to be happy. The problem is that those bad memories are pushed away, but every now and then, they come right back to our minds.

Sometimes children are also threatened, so they are afraid to talk when something bad happens. If you feel like something sexual happened to you when you were younger, DO NOT be afraid to talk about it. We can help you process your feelings and get over whatever it is that is bothering you.
