Not at all surprising @gymgirl240 Sometimes the uncertainty of what is happening places extra pressure on you also - that is the bad days. Hold on to the good days and remember that you have done nothing wrong and that this happened TO you but doesn't define who you are. You really are incredibly brave @gymgirl240

@Zoe7thank you, yeah its hard to be brave from time to time but just cannot wait to see this person behind bars as once he is there i know i might feel a bit better knowing he is locked up

We often put on a 'brave face' even when we are not feeling that way @gymgirl240 - it is a self-protection mechanism. We don't want others to know or think any differently of us - that is why what you are doing is so brave - you are facing it 'head-on', taking action and walking thepath many cannot - that is more than brave When you are having those bad days - remember this and know that your inner strength is guiding you through this

That is quite okay @gymgirl240 - not easy at all to do what you are doing after going through what you have - but your maturity and resilience in dealing with all this is shining through - very impressive in-fact You are definitely a strong person and when you feel yourself 'falling' remind yourself of that
