I am a survivor of sexual assault. For a very long time, I carried what happened to me in silence. Shame and fear kept me quiet, even though the harm was never mine to carry. Speaking out now is about reclaiming my voice.

I stand in solidarity with fellow survivors because abuse thrives in secrecy and isolation. Campaigns like this matter - they remind us we are not alone, that our stories deserve to be heard, and that our pain deserves acknowledgment and justice.

Those who commit abuse must be held accountable - and so must those who enable, excuse, or conceal it.

To every survivor reading this: what happened to you was not your fault. You deserved safety then, and you deserve healing and justice now.
