April is sexual assault awareness month. It’s not right, it’s far from right it’s wrong. Nobody should have to go through anything like this. Unfortunately I am a victim. Thankfully I wasn’t raped but I was touched inappropriately on my way to meet someone. I’m glad it didn’t go any further than that but it left me very scared and not able to trust anyone except people I was close with and trust already. Some people who read my story and are reading this now might be thinking, get over yourself it’s been worse for others who it has gone further for but it’s still a part of it and it could have gone further if I hadn’t managed to get away. Now I never go anywhere by myself especially in Bolton town I always meet someone or have someone with me. To some people it might not be a huge deal but to me it is. It’s been a month since it happened and it’s still somethings that’s bothering me majorly and something I can’t stop thinking about. It’s a difficult thing to go through. If you’ve been through something like I have and you feel like I do as if it’s not a bigger issue well it is and even thought reporting it and talking about it will keep reminding you what you went through the police will do everything they can to help you I promise. Please don’t keep quiet like I almost did. ~ Deets x
