Default Sexual Assault and Guilt

I have written a series of blogs on dealing with many aspects of sexual assault including the guilt that accompanies rape and sexual assault, plus learning to deal with the aftereffects of a sexual assault, including other people's reaction to the news. You can read all of these articles here
Best wishes, Beth

Default Protecting others when you've been sexually assaulted

Another aspect of sexual assault is when the victims tries to protect others by not telling them about their assault. This may be because they don't want to tell an elderly grandparent, or they don't want to tell the daughter of a rapist that their father is a criminal. It's very common for victims to protect others, but it is at the expense of healing themselves. You can read about this common phenomena here

Appreciate that you are sharing your expertise on these topics, Beth.

They are very true and very sad occur daily in the world.

Prayers for healing for these individuals.
