Just rung mums house. 'He' answered. I hung up. Mum called back 2 mins later. Lovely chat until I tried to reorganise our week together. Said I didn't want to speak whilst he was there. I heard him doing a mocking laugh. So whilst he could hear, I said "I hope he knows what's coming" #csa

I am starting trauma counselling next week. After 2 assessment sessions, it's been sorted, very quickly, as they believe my need is urgent. I had a breakdown 2 weeks ago because of my family. It seems they are triggering my trauma. What a complex & ongoing situation to be living with #CSA

Lost what little I had left of my family today. Everyone is 'exhausted' with my rape and a use. And yet none of them have even offered to do counselling. I keep hearing 'I don't want tobget involved. Well, you are involved, this affects is all.

What I want to do, more than anything right now, is stand on top of a hill & shout as loud as I fucking can, "I'm here, I was raped as a child, I was sexually abused as a child & adult & everyone is carrying on like it didn't happen. I WANT TO BE SEEN & HEARD" & then scream my fucking lungs out #csa

I was 48 when I had my breakdown. 50 when I told my sister. 54 when I told my mum and other sister. So this makes me typical of #victims #survivors. Although I don't think there should be anything typical about us. Yes to removing the #statuteoflimitaton for #ChildhoodSexualAbuse #CSA CSAM

Here we go again. The #Pelicot trial got HUGE global coverage. A #paedophile raping hundreds of children in France for over 15 years barely gets any domestic coverage. "It's frightening to think [the rapes] could happen again," They are. Now. Always. They never stop www.bbc.com/news/article...

For the first time in my life & since I told my mum about my familial rape & abuse, I feel our relationship has changed. She isn't supporting me although she doesn't see it. She welcomes him & enjoys his company. Not upsetting or alienating him seems more important than me feeling marginalised.

Utterly heartbreaking. What a courageous woman taking a stand against the most powerful people in the world. The toll, as we as survivors know all too well, is unimaginable. So sad for the family she leaves behind. We must continue her fight to call perpetrators out #VirginiaGiuffre #CSA

My family is currently falling apart & AB, my rapist, is still trying to manipulate our 88 year old mum. I can't bear it. I can't be there to help her because she still engages with him as if nothing has happened. And it's breaking my heart & JH, my sister who has tried to mediate. Just awful #csa

Being a Survivor of sexual violence is unimaginably isolating. And that means being isolated from "friends" and family who don't know how to handle it. So don't handle it. And you're left on you own. Everyone wants things to go back to being as they were. And you to go back to being AS YOU WERE #CSA

My sister, SB, is willingly and happily spending time with AB, the family member that she knows raped and sexually abused me, tonight. She'd rather do that than support me - unimaginable and beyond hurtful for me. It's actions like this that drive me closer to exposing the whole truth publicly #CSA

I've been quiet because work is intense at the moment. But my timeline and work life is filled with misogynistic men, who not only get away with their awful behaviour but worse, are being rewarded for it. And we are either silent or attacked for speaking up. I'm absolutely exhausted #csa

Is the reason why the Conservatives didn't apply the 20 recommendations from the Alexis Jay inquiry report Because as the FT write, compensation would have reached £10 billion And the Conservatives didn't want to pay for it?

Why are you more angry at my reaction to being raped and sexually abused by my brother, than to the rapist and sexual abuse itself? #CSA #Rape #SexualAbuse

I was sexually assaulted by someone in the music industry - not a surprise. But what's written here about Rape being about control and power is so true. The man that sexually assaulted me is gay and still working in radio. What's worse, our (old) mutual friends stand by him. #Rape #SexualAssault

After a lovely Christmas day with my sister J & her family, I brought my mum home to mine for a couple of nights. She's due to go to A's (my familial abuser) & his family today but had an upset stomach and is exhausted. Determined I'm keeping her from him, he threatened to drive here & collect her..

My Christmas is already bringing hostility from a sister, also abused by A (wont ever call him my brother again), is angry at me for asking her son to pass on a message about cancelling our mums newspaper whilst she's away. I no longer speak with her (another story). Here's my message to him...

Huge respect & admiration for #GiselePelicot. Such immense courage. I feel inspired to speak out about my own abuse. But, like many others, there is no firm evidence or proof. Which makes it hard to pursue & get this kind of justice. The trauma of going public & facing more abuse is v real. #Pelicot

I am going to share my experiences of childhood sexual abuse & adult sexual assault here. I will remain anonymous, for now, in order to tell my story without barriers - of which there are many. I have chosen the gold logo as both a warm, protective umbrella & hot air balloon to rise & be free.
