What a powerful story of courageously standing up for what is right, even when it means facing persecution from your own family. I deeply resonate with your experience. It’s so important to name these things clearly—not only to validate survivors by showing them it wasn’t normal, even if it felt that way growing up, but also to help others truly understand what it’s like to endure harm from those who should have nurtured and protected us. I’m genuinely sorry for everything you’ve been through and admire your bravery in sharing your journey.

Thank you. Truly, it took a long time to heal to where I am and its still a daily practice
