Handing the Shame Back
This channel is dedicated to all those brave fellow 'adult survivors of child sexual abuse'. You are not alone out there, you are believed and supported in finding your voice & handing the shame back to the abusers - where it belongs.
Each week I will add another interview with a 'fellow survivor' to help support our community in finding their way to truth and freedom, which only real truth can bring. Please feel free to reach out if you would also like to be a guest on the show.
About Me: I too am a survivor of child sexual abuse spanning sixteen years. I have written a book called On Angels' Wings - My Flight from Trauma to Grace.
I also blog monthly on https://www.handingtheshameback.org/

Survivor Tip #43 - Your Voice
Your Voice
Lots of survivors have had their voice robbed many times over, maybe initially as a child, and then again as an adult, when sharing your story.
It may be that someone looks at you in a strange way or challenges you....
The tip is that your voice is very important, and here's some ways to hold onto it.
Responding with 'why would you ask me that?' can be a start, another is to not discuss your story unless you have someone with you who has your back.
A final tip would be using silence as a response, your detractors won't know how to cope with that. Sometimes silence can be the most powerful thing you can do!
