Raped, Not Ruined

Raped, Not Ruined is a book I shouldn’t have had to write.
It’s a look inside the raw emotions that come through the experience. There’s raging fury, devastation, hope, crushing exhaustion and deep depressions. Self-loathing. Forgiveness. Peace. Shattering and opening up over and over.

This book doesn’t dwell in the anger too much, but it’s there. It’s real and it needs to be seen, felt, heard, and spoken. Because this phenomenon is an outrage.

But more important than the anger and the pain,
this book is about the healing.

It’s about how I came back to my body. How I coped with the following pregnancy and then the miscarriage. It’s how I survived the waves and weeks and months it took to put myself back together- and it’s about how I came to forgive the men who hurt me. How I learned to open up and share, and what it took to finally understand what I needed from those who wanted to help me in my healing.
