Survivors of Sexual Abuse, Let's TalkAuthor: Patricia L.
During my ongoing journey of recovery I have met more and more people who have been sexually abused in one way or another. Statistics say that 1 woman out of 5 has experienced some type of sexual assault and 1 out of 3 between the ages of 11 & 17. Statistics also show that 1 out of 4 men experience some type of sexual abuse in their lifetime and the same ratio as women for young men between the ages of 11 & 17. We all can find statistics in various places, and these can also be different; but you know what? We are not a number, we are human beings who know that we are part of these groups of people who are the making of the stats. We are humans, we are men and women who want to belong to something else other than statistics. We are individuals who need to not feel lonely, alone, ashamed, fearful, abandoned and forgotten. This podcast is for you, for my fellow humans who feel the deepest feelings that sexual abuse has brought to our lives. You are not alone and although I can't promise that you will feel better after listening to this podcast, I feel enormous hope that you will find in these stories some comfort in knowing that you are never alone and that better times are to come.email: unsilenced.patriciaolarsen@gmail.com Language: en Genres: Education, Health & Fitness, Mental Health, Self-Improvement Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

Hello dear listeners, I am excited to share this small update on all the good things happening when one puts all of their effort into their recovery.Five years ago I decided to take over my life and make of it was I wanted it to be. It has been a lot, and I mean a LOT of work to get where I am, and although my life is not perfect, nor I expect it to be, I am in a better place in my life. I feel strong, safe(r), grounded, happier and at peace, I hope to continue adding the work needed to and conquering any unexpected and delicate aspects of this great experience called life.I have written a book! Please hear a bit about it and perhaps get it for yourself or for someone you know.You are loved.
