Why is there no forum for "victims of sexual assault"? Or does it go under "Survivors of abuse"? I think a lot of people would benefit from having a forum like that, since it's pretty common, unfortunately.

I am not a victim of sexual assault, but I agree that it would be a good idea. There are a lot of victims out there.

Victims of sexual assault are welcomed to post in the "Survivors of abuse" forum -- it's for all survivors of all kinds of abuse or assault.

Depending on the content of the post it could fall under PTSD as well as sexual assault often leads to PTSD.

I think this subject needs more discussion, and people need more education on the subject. I for one an grateful for this topic being included in discussion.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
