Someone Hurt Me (Trigger Warning)

I will use a big word here because you clicked past the trigger warning. We must use big words when big things happen to us because we must call these things what they are.

Assault is a very serious and scary thing that can happen to anyone. You need to know that if you have ever experienced assault, it is never your fault. Assault is when someone hurts you in a way that is not okay. It can happen in many different ways, such as someone touching you in a way that makes you uncomfortable or someone hurting you physically.

Sometimes, people who assault others may try to make it seem like it is the victim’s fault. They may try to make you feel like you did something wrong or like you asked for it. But it’s very important to remember that this is not true. No matter what you were wearing, what you said, or what you did, it’s never your fault if someone hurts you in a way you didn’t want.

It can be tough to talk about assault, and it’s okay to feel scared or embarrassed. But it’s important to know that you’re not alone. Many people can help you and support you, such as your parents, teachers, school counselors, or other trusted adults. You can tell them what happened and they will help you.

If you ever experience assault, remember that it is not your fault. You did nothing wrong and deserve to be safe and happy. You are a strong and brave person who can get through this. Just remember that there are people who love you and will be there for you, no matter what.
