- Hey everyone!
I have been going to therapy recently and I have realized that talking to a therapist and doing trauma work has been very healing for me. Throughout my therapy, I have realized that I have SEVERAL mental illnesses and I personally believe that they all (for the most part) stem from me pushing unwanted memories into the back of my mind or suppressing my emotions. With what little therapy exposure I do have, I have learned that suppressing my emotions are not helpful anymore and I need to actually deal with my emotions and talk about my trauma so today, I bring you this video.
Sexual assault statistics and sources:

My assault story involves my biological father, step-father, and father-in-law. I know most people don't want to name their abusers, but is it allowed if we want to name them??? I have been contemplating making my own video like this, to tell my story. You are so strong and brave! Thank you for sharing your story with us!
Thank you for your kind words. I’m sorry you had to go through that but you’re a survivor and strong as well. Hearing other survivors’ stories has really helped me come to terms with what happened to me and gave me the strength to make this video. Making my own video has helped me heal and move on. If you feel comfortable sharing your story, I definitely think you should make a video as well. Your story deserves to be heard. The reason I didn’t name my abusers is because there is no physical evidence to prove that these people abused me (other than a witness from my very first encounter) so it’s basically he-said, she-said and if I mentioned their names I could potentially get sued for defamation (even though I’m telling the truth) but there’s no physical evidence to prove that it happened. 😕
I was molested by my first cousin I was 10 and he was 20 he is called Philip. I have hidden his identity long enough.
@@mariaadhiambo4738 thank you for sharing your truth! You are so strong and so loved. 💘
I'm sorry that happened to you
I was abused at the age of 10 by an adult relative for a whole year. I still find it hard to be in a proper relationship
Thank you for sharing your experiences, I am really sorry you had to go through that. No child should ever face this, ever.
Thank you 🥺💕
You articulate your thoughts well, and your manner of speaking is dignified, and respectful.
I hope your therapy continues to progress forward.
Thank-you for sharing your experience.
You are super brave!!!
Don’t take anything personal, from anybody is just words…. you are super strong. Keep it up.
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I have been binging your vids all day!
Thank you 😊
I’m so sorry that happened to you no one deserves to go through stuff like that I hope you’ve recovered and that you’re doing better
Stay strong
Thank you ❤️
You are so brave for sharing, hope time is a good healer, hugs.
I watched yours and few other videos on the subject. I am shocked how common this thing of not telling anyone is. It's really worrying.
Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you! I hope in the future we can create a safe place for victims to feel comfortable sharing our truth. 💘
No child should be out of their mothers sight for even one second. I am so sorry what happened to you. Love from the UK. My parents didnt let us go anywhere alone.
You had amazing parents! My mother was the same, she did trust us around some family, and a family member mol****d me. 😢 Sad to say, it usually happens to the person by a close family friend, friend, and family. It's sad, because I chose to have no kids because of fear that this could happen to them, so I feared that I would be to paranoid, and extremely over protective, which could be unhealthy for my children as well.
Thank you ❤️
@@ohmygoshtosh 💓💓💓Most welcome.
some mothers are the ones that set up the abuse.
Hi Natosha
Thank you for your vulnerability in sharing your story, I know allot of kids are abused (both sexually, physically and emotionally) yet feel they can’t talk about it for fear that no one will listen, or that no one will take them seriously, or that they’ll be told to just “brush it off” however, by sharing your story I feel we can now work towards creating a safer world and one where kids are encouraged to talk, without fear of judgment or shame befalling them
Thank you again for your vulnerability and strength to come forward with this💕🙏🏼
Stay strong 💪
Thank you for your kind words! ❤️
This is a good video. There are interesting incidents and she gives a reasonable amount of detail.
I'm so sorry that this happened to you, sweetheart. I'm a survivor too. We will all get through this! I was a middle schooler when I first realized that I loved little kids (not in a creepy way, I promise), and I would honestly love to play with little kids because they're so sweet and unique! I'm going for my degree in preschool teaching!
You’re very courageous thank you for sharing your experiences
Thank you 💘
Definitely traumatic I’m so sorry.
Thank you.
I am so sorry for you. I hope you are doing well now. What happened to you is by no means embarrassing. My friend was also sexually abused, by his sister, no less. I realised that just a few months ago when I was remembering my old school days. Just needed to get that out.
What happened to you is not embarrassing. my prayers are with you for mental peace 🙏🙏
Thank you. That means so much to me. 🥺💕
Great video. Very moving.
Thank you 🥺💕
Thnx for sharing your experience. It happened to my girlfriend since she was 6 until 11 or 12. Unfortunately this problem completely affected our life in many aspects
I’m sorry to hear that. let your girlfriend know that she is so strong and make her feel loved and most importantly, safe. 🥺🥰
@@ohmygoshtosh thnx for empathy and your kindness 🙏🙏🌼
Thank you for sharing your story, you are absolutely beautiful
Thank you so much. You’re so sweet. 💕🥰
I wish you so much peace and love… with each day that passes may you feel lighter and more free from these traumatic experiences. 💖🌈💕
That was so sweet of you! Thank you so much for your kind words. 💘
My prayers gor you go out to you for your healing and strength going forward. God Bless you.
I’m so sorry but thanks for sharing.
Thank you 😊
Sorry you experience such terrible trauma in your childhood. Can I say you are a very brave young woman to speak your truth. You have nothing at all to feel embarrassed about, it was not your fault. As a child you have no concept of sexual activity a child's mind is not developed. It took me many many years to speak my truth. Thank you for sharing your story you have helped me and others. We are survivors. Sending you continued healing.
Thank you so much 🥺💘
@@ohmygoshtosh ❤️
I love stories like this. I collect them an goon out to them all night
🤣
Thank you for sharing your story honey, I'm grateful for survivors like you, you are beautiful, and brave!I too was mo****d as a child, when I was 4, multiple times, by a cousin who was around 16! This was after I was s**t in the face with an Ak-47, in a drive by shoo***g, and my mother was s**t in the head, temple, we were hospitalized, we both survived, praise Jehovah! Later on, I was also physically, and verbally ab*sed by my father, who was always in and out of prison. It really messed me up for a long time. I held the secret for many years, (my cousin mo******g me)and it was so uncomfortable at family gatherings, and celebrations, because he was there. He would always find a way to stare into my eyes, and I would turn away, or walk outside. It's like he was undressing me with his eyes, and sizing me up! I would always come close 2 telling, and then back out, because I was afraid, ashamed,& I thought somehow it was my fault that this happened 2 me, and I was afraid that some wouldn't believe me, and would mistreat me, because he was highly loved. Later on in life, I was diagnosed with lupus sle, and fibromylagia, and fibroids, at age 19, I started stripping when I was 21, I allowed many men, and women to abuse me sexually, mentally, and physically!I was R**** a few times by customers! Despite being attractive, as I'm told frequently, I had low self esteem, and I hated myself! I was addicted to gambling, alcohol, some drugs, I was suicidal many times, I had two eating disorders, bulimia and anorexia. I ended up being homeless for a few years! I finally became sick and tired, and I prayed earnestly, and humbly to Jehovah, and he changed my life! I'm now 35 years old, and I'm almost 3 years clean, and sober, I quit dancing almost 4 years ago, I quit gambling 3 years ago, and I'm free from my eating disorders. I was diagnosed with severe ocd, and ptsd, 2 years ago, and I'm in therapy. I'm finally healing, and moving on with my life.Most importantly, I know that I didn't deserve what my abuser inflicted on me, I know that it wasn't my fault at all! I was with my now husband for almost 18 years, he has almost 38 years clean and sober, he's 30 years older than me, (65)we're now married, one month today, and when we are intimate, sometimes it still bothers me, because of my past sexual ab***!He has stood by my side, and supported me physically, and mentally, and showed me so much unconditional love through it all, It's a working progress. I love my husband, but I know that my life was sculpted the way it was because of a**se, and I maybe wouldn't have been with a man so much older had it never taken place! My heart goes out to you, and any woman or man, who had a monster steal their innocence, who was supposed to love, adore, and protect them,or stranger! I pray that you continue to heal,& I pray that it is a success. If you read through all of this, then thank you so much! It's appreciated! I'm passing it along hopefully to help strengthen anyone who needs it, and to let you know that Jehovah loves you more than you could ever understand! And there is a way out, light at the end of the darkest tunnel, "HOPE". And I love you too! 😍 🌈 🙏 Thank you again! ❤ 😍 💖 ❣
So sorry that happened to you but now you are free
I was abused too by my brother and had trauma all my life.
I’m so sorry. 🥺💔
Hiiii thankuu for sharing ur story. I was raped by my dad 2 times when I was 7 and 8. It's important for me to tell u that because I hear u say ur experiences r insignificant and small. U know by saying something to someone that's huge commendable even. I am 49 and even tho he is dead I'm still terrified of him. I never spoke up. I did when I was an adult but that is too late. U should be proud of urself. For handling this the best that u could . Thankuu again for this. Be proud of u not embarrassed that this happened to u. Hugs to u continue to speak up and keep ur head held high. No more downplaying ur experiences no more comparing ur experiences. Hugs to u 🤗
You are such a sweetheart thank you so much for your kind words. That’s exactly what I needed to hear. I’m sorry that you had to go through your experiences too. Our abusers are scary and I’m very proud of you for speaking up when you got older. You made my day by commenting that. 💘
At least your very honest. I have gone threw it also.. It does effects my relationship..
Sad your a angel 💘
Me too twice I was shook up and thrown in to kitchen when I was an infant 9 months old Christmas miracle I survived operated till lunch time Christmas happened Christmas Eve. I had a flash back and remember the night when I found out later in life . Then I was abducted at 21 New Year’s Eve and was revived two times in one night and rapped I had hameroids 3/4 down my legs blacked out come to in the city. Your not alone keep speaking up it helps victims. We got live with it the rest of lives.stay strong mate
This one makes number fourteen today. This is like watching a football game. One more, one more, and another one. It seems it has become a national sport.
The way I see it, nobody does anything about it.
@@victorhrodriguez1159 thank you for watching!! ☺️
@@ohmygoshtosh You are welcome.
It looks like many people are really enjoying it.
Thank you so much for telling your story, you are so brave. At 6:26, I agree. When I was 15 or 16 years old, I did not want to hang-out with a six-year-old little child unless I am getting paid for it. I am so sorry you had to go through that as a child. I hope you are getting the help you need. God Bless you and have a good night!
Thank you!
@@ohmygoshtosh You're welcome. I mean every word in the message!🙂
I dont hate Women,def not Serbian and American women/girls ( mmmmm),I’m not a lone wolf nor a satanist,nor devil worshiper,i am a decent human who has suffered so much ,was called ugly when its not my fault,laughed at,made fun of,SPIT ON,called BOSNIA instead of HARIS by an coach ( American ) in the P.E class,had the everyone there laugh at me,so much unfairness was done to me ,mostly my own kind,Bosniak girls hurt me,,and you know what was done to them in the aggression on Bosnia ,right??. I still feel bad,Hiroshima,Vietnam,Iraq, Afghanistan,and yes Bosnia,just to name a few……………….Disgusting……
I had to go through something similar when I was 5 I don’t really remember what happened I just have a pretty good idea what happened
I’m sorry to hear that, I’m right there with you. I think other things happened to me too but I can’t remember. 🥺
For the longest time I always thought I was the only one going through that. I was 5 or 6 when I got sexually assaulted. It was by my oldest brother. For some reason one day he decided to ask me to go to his room and told me let’s keep secrets and at first I didn’t think anything bad about it. But then the first thing he did was take his pants down and he told me to put his thing in my mouth. At first I was confused because I never seen it and I didn’t really know what to say. So I did it and he told me to just suck on it for a while. He made me think that this was our special way of being closer as brother and sister and it went on for years. I felt so ashamed about it when I grew up and realized I shouldn’t have been doing it but at the beginning I just didn’t have that much knowledge to know what’s right and wrong. More things started happening with me and him and till this day I can’t believe I experienced that as such a young age but I just wanted to say you are brave for speaking out about it because for me it’s always been hard. So you are an inspiration to me ❤️
only love can mend a heart, the love you need fore yourself must be earned yes . be a friend to a child or. be a dog/cat lover. there is no better felling than when you work and get real love. your heart will mend you you will a loveable again go got it big time.
what would be a solution to this problem? if 25% of children are SA-ed inside their family home before the age of 16, it's probably even more in total, and if it's that common, is it even a problem? i sometimes think we should let it be. as you yourself said, you didn't even know it was something that shouldn't have happened until you went to the psychiatrist. it's weird, but is it more than that? how do we know that the psychiatrist are doing their job with good intentions?
I'm sorry that happened to u 😔
Thank you
@@ohmygoshtosh do u have a lG page just know that lm here for u u have my support
U didn't deserve those things to happened to u

You're in high school I hope you think that's weird. Maybe you're a quieter girl but you were older use your voice girls!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Well a lot of people like me don’t care about what Steve thought. They could slow a way to pick between iPadOS or macOS. They don’t want to do that because Mac sales will go down, they know it, you know it, and both iPad and Mac users know it. That’s the reason they won’t allow macOS on an IPad, the iPad would replace the Mac for a lot more people with pro apps or Mac OS on it. Apple fears what that would do to Mac sales, can anyone keep a straight face and say Mac sales would not drop if the IPad Pro was more capable?
I had to do the same thing if it's really hard God bless you
Thank you! 🙏🏻
It's very hard I can not do it.. I was 4 years old ..
I was around 2. It's not impossible to find peace of mind. I hope everything is ok for you these days 😊👍
I'm guessing this counts as sexual assault so here you go
When I was in 2nd or 3rd grade, there was tis holiday care thing. They did trips and stuff like that, so we went to a puppet show and I was sitting next to one of the boys who was a grade older than me. He was acting pretty weirdly but I didn't mind it. So when we got back to the holiday care building, me and my friend went to this room where you could excersize. Later the boy walks in and we talk about smth ig. A little later I'm guessing we got into like a small fight or smth bc next thing I know this kid is kissing me on the lips with full force. I absolutely hated it. I couldn't say anything because my brain was thinking to much and trying to process what just happened. He continued by saying "Sag doch einfach stop" which means "just tell me to stop" in german. I couldn't believe what he said. The worst part is, my friend just watched him do it. He haunted me ever day he saw me in school after that. If you read this, thank you for listening to my experience.
Thank you for your courage and for courageously bringing your experiences into the light. Thank you for modeling what being truly human looks like. Your courage will help to expose and hopefully stop the sinful and hurtful abuse by predators... I really admire your courage to bring your issues into the light. Jesus said, "I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness" (John 12:46 NKJV). I pray for true and deeper healing for you. Your courage inspires me to do the hard work of being honest with myself so I become more pure and more fully human.
Thank you!! That means so much to me!! 😊
May the Lord God bless you and guide you.
Thank you ❤️
In middle school. Over the age to know what you and he were doing. This is another story that I don't believe totally. Not convincing to me.
luv u
I dont really belong here.
But im here to say
If you are being used
Tell someone
Get help before it is too late
I was mollestered by my uncle
Why is pleasure illegal?
🥺🥺
Very nice story 😍 be thinking of it later...just kinda wish it was more i would love to hear how good of a girl you were lol
Are you for real?
Ewwwwwww
Hi
If you cannot say more then " body part" then you are not reliable as a victim. Those things are things that kids do. If you were 10 and he was 17 that would be different. You just experienced childhood. If you can not say rape then you have no case or credibility. Corey

So what are you doing with your life now ? Are you working ? Are you dwelling on this and collecting state assistance? Yes it's tramatic. But someone will tell you to move on instead of continuously bringing it up everyday. Almost everyone has been molested in some sort of way. And they became productive, had a family, and moved on instead of talking about it continuously year after year after year. People who have been molested dont come on UA-cam and tell their story. They're tougher than 30 mins or so of airtime
daughter! your childhood story is very bad. I appreciate your courage to express. But suggest ways to minimise such incidents.

Go get a job as a social worker 😊

Let’s see how many thumbs down likes we can get on this comment
If it’s so embarrassing and you don’t want anyone to about your story then why in the hell are you telling it on social media I’m sorry but your about silly asf and it makes it hard to believe you when you start your story like you have 🙄
I don’t care if you believe me or not lol 🤷🏼♀️ unless you’ve experienced this, then you will know how it feels and how embarrassing/uncomfortable it truly is. Not that I owe you an explanation, but since you asked, I’m telling MY story so other survivors know that they’re not alone, and also for survivors to feel comfortable to come forward with their stories. You can take your negativity elsewhere because it’s NOT welcome here on my channel. Byeeee. 👋🏻🙄😘
For likes and subs…
That’s mainly why.🤥
