Have you ever felt someone grip your arm so tightly, you panic that it's going to bruise?
Have you ever had your jaw grabbed so firmly that your teeth cut into your cheeks? Just because you tried to argue back, defend yourself.
Have you ever been shoved into a wall hard enough that it makes your back sting?
Have you ever had someone get so in your face that you can feel the heat of their breath on your skin, the moisture coming off their tongue?
Have you ever lost all your friends because they force you to make them the only one in your life?
Have you ever just laid there on your back, waiting for them to be done using your body for the sixth time that day?
Have you ever screamed for them to stop in your head, but were too scared to tell them no?
Have you ever been raped?
Have you ever hated yourself to the point where you couldn't look in the mirror?
Have you ever felt so alone, no matter how many people were around?
Have you ever been told you'll never be good enough?
Have you EVER been used, screamed at, abused?
I have. For a year.
Now, 6 years later, it still haunts me.
Anxiety. Depression. Fear. Panic Attacks. Trust Issues.
Abuse is not a joke.
Not Physical. Not Verbal/Mental/Emotional. Not Sexual.
Rape is not a joke.
Ruining someone's life. Changing it.
Is. Not. A. Joke.
Get help.
Tell SOMEONE.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
