Wanted to share these writing circles for survivors of sexual trauma. If you are a budding writer, or even just curious about writing as a hobby or for healing purposes, working with Donna in her groups would be a great place to safely explore.

FUN FACT: Even prehistoric children played! Play is important for people of all ages. A healthy, happy inner child creates a healthy, happy adult. So draw in the sand, watch a chipmunk. Be silly. Indulge. You'll find it's liberating! #mentalhealth #healcsa https://t.co/SG4MCqbmbA

Willing to be on the show Fix My Life on OWN with Iyanla? I know CSA is very private for most of us, but anyone willing to participate might not only get help for themselves, but also help a lot of other people watching too. #HealCSA #talkaboutit #csametoo https://t.co/vWxbmKbsxu

Do you know a CSA survivor who loves horses? Equine Gestalt Therapy might be a wonderful alternative healing modality they would enjoy.

@DanaLArcuri Forgiveness is not required. But refusal to let go of focusing on “what they did to me” is highly destructive. Until a survivor can shift focus to themselves, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to heal.

[HelpforSurvivors.org @HelpforCSA]

@DanaLArcuri Forgiveness can liberate a survivor if they can apply it to themselves, deepening their understanding that it wasn’t their fault, and forgiving their younger self for not knowing better, or not fighting back, or not finding a way out. Emotions don’t always make sense.

@Christo49831227 There is a difference between being silent because that is your way and being silent because of shame or fear.

I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me.

“Being traumatised does make you a difficult person to get along with. Because you suddenly get angry, you suddenly shut down or you space out. But more difficult is to live that life: not being able to trust yourself.” Bessel Van der Kolk

@EmpowerSurvivor @YouTube Katie Morton is a great resource for Survivors!

Watch this beautiful video of encouragement and support for anyone struggling with self-pity, despair or illness. It's a perfect message for CSA survivors, reminding us that CSA does not define our lives unless we let it. #CSAsurvivor #mentalhealth https://t.co/DFscbo0SiU

This one made me cry! Her points on healing from CSA were good and valid. But her closing is truly inspirational! ❤️ Watch to the end.

Have you ever experienced shame about being overly-sexual? Did others know, call you names or talk behind your back because of your promiscuity?

You're not alone! Hypersexuality is common among CSA survivors.
