#fyp #assaultawarenessmonth #survivor #spreadawareness #yourenotalone it has took a lot of courage for me to post this. And what i went through is not okay. Some days i wish i would have died that night but i am glad i didnt. Because i have kids that need me. The #trauma that ive been put through has had me wondering if the world is even good. Its not fair what happened to me. I deserve better than this. Its almost been a month since then. And my whole life was turned upside down.
