Unbreakable

Baby, I know I keep telling you this but it's true, I am SO PROUD of you for this. I love having the chance to say here for everyone to see that I love you and will always be your number one fan and supporter. Welcome to aftersilence. To everyone else, I'm the Unbreakable that she's talking about. Let me introduce my girlfriend Scartissue, the strongest person I know. She is a very special girl who deserves only the best, that's why I introduced her to aftersilence. She is one of those pure good people out there, doing her best for herself and her Loved ones, and has been hurt terribly along

Hello, I can be your friend.

I have learned that everyone's healing path is different. We heal in different ways. And we take different amounts of time to heal. Maybe we never really "heal" but instead evolve and become stronger, wiser, and better people. I can't say that I have ever felt like I did before I was raped. But feeling "normal" can happen. You can learn to smile again, to laugh, to tell jokes, to take pleasures in things that you used to. You can get to a point where nobody knows unless you tell them. Before I started with AS, weeks went by that I didn't think about what happened. I think that for me,

The more of AS you dig into, the more the courage comes when needed. Anytime you need someone to talk to in private, you can feel free to PM me and I will listen and talk about anything it takes to make you feel comfortable. Luv Liz

Welcome to the group, Katie. You have hit the jackpot of people who know what it's like. I hope we can give you all the help you need to heal. I am very glad to hear that you have told some people now. I know how hard it was for me to tell people. The best advice that I was given was to write my story down, just for myself, in a word perfect file, even if I could only write 1 or 2 words at a time and to come back to it every time I have the strength to write more, include more details that I had left out, include things that I had forgotten. I keep writing and revising and adding to my s

Welcome to After Silence. I really hope that you find what you need here. If you need someone to talk to in private, please know that you can PM me and I will reply. I have never had any support from my family because I never told them what happened to me. I have never had all that great of a family like it seems other people have. But I do wish that I had one. Instead, I have found friends that have gotten me through an amazing amount of recovery. Now, I have After Silence to give me what I need. People who listen. Peoply who can sympathize with me. People who care. People who need

Thank you all for such a warm welcome. I want you all to know that if there is anything I can do to help you, please let me know. Liz

Hi, my name is Liz and I survived rape and abuse. I’ve come very far in the 3 years since it started. Most of the time what fucks me up the most is that it doesn’t bother me that much anymore.

But somewhere along the line I stopped crying and other things in my life became more important and that part of my life became less and less important. Does that mean that I'm healed? Or does that mean that somewhere deep in the bowels of my mind, I've rep
