Before I came forward with my story about being abused, I felt incredibly alone. I felt like I was the only person who was going through this kind of abuse. And when sharing my story, not only was I able to get the help, therapy, and money I needed to move out of my abusive home, I was also able to get support from people and feel like I wasn’t alone. But not only that, I was also able to make other people feel supported, make other people feel like they weren’t alone, make other people feel like they had somebody who understood them as they moved through their journey toward healing.
