It's understandable that you wouldn't want your mom to know the details, or to share them with people form your classes as you don't know them well. Do you feel afraid to walk alone? What if you kept a safe object in your hands while you're walking to your classes? It could be a worry stone, a bracelet, or anything that helps you feel grounded. You could also take some deep breaths and use mindfulness while you're walking around campus.

Regardless of whether or not you go through with legal proceedings, talking to someone at your school about this situation might be a good idea. Perhaps someone at your school or your therapist could have tips on how to cope.

Seeing an abuser is very difficult so do take care of yourself and know that it's okay to feel what you're feeling. Try not to judge yourself or be too hard on yourself.


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first


The axe forgets, but the tree remembers
