As an abuse survivor there are many decisions that we have to make that most people aren't faced with
Do we tell our story, who do we tell and when
Part of what can make our decisions so hard is our own expectations about what will happen
Until we actually take the steps to tell our story and get the help that we deserve our expectations about what is going to happen when we tell our story can be so overwhelming it can make it hard to do it
Having some control over our expectations can help us to take the steps that we need in order to find the healing that we deserve
