Abuse
Being treated cruelly is damaging on multiple levels - especially when it’s done by someone who is supposed to care about you. If you have experienced violence or abuse, it is important to know that you are not alone. There are resources and people ready to support you through this challenging time.
Sexual assault

Recovering from sexual assault may include seeking professional support, building a strong support network, and addressing both emotional and psychological wounds to foster healing.

The ongoing trauma and control exerted in abusive relationships can undermine an individual's sense of safety and self-worth, making recovery and emotional stability challenging.
