"I'm 43 and I was first sexually assaulted at the age of 13 by a group of older male friends who handcuffed me to a bed and took it in turns to touch and humiliate me." 1/ #STFUSaturday

"I told my parents who said I'd put myself into a position where it was my fault. I told no one else and instead spiralled for many years into self harm and, in my head, put myself in many other situations that were my fault. 2/ #STFUSaturday
"Being flashed at because I walked home in the dark, angering a boyfriend for being easy so he hung me by my neck from a multi story carpark, saying no but being in a bedroom so I'd really said yes." 3/ #STFUSaturday
"My first husband used to beat me but it was because I was argumentative and if he saw that I was suffering he would leave a razor by the bed.
It's taken me a lot of years to realise that it's not my fault. I'm covered in scars for every day I believed it was." 4/ #STFUSaturday

"Places like twitter make me realise I'm not alone or unique. I'm also lucky I found someone who, when the past very occasionally catches up with me, comes and sits beside me on the bathroom floor and loves me even when I don't love myself." 5/5 #STFUSaturday
