Signal boost : my best friend was stabbed and raped

serious-tv-art:

Summarized : Ana is a competitive dancer and a dance teacher. She was brutally assaulted on her way home. She was raped, stabbed and beaten. Ana suffered physical trauma as well as deep psychological trauma. She will be spending another month in a hospital, which leaves her with no income. Her friends and family are hoping Ana will be able to fullfil one of her biggest dream - to compete in a Latin dance competition abroad in Vienna in 6 months. She also needs to cover her medical bills, therapies and basic necessities.

Whole story of what happened to Ana :

This is Ana, my best friend of 12 years. She is an amazing competitive Latin and Ballroom dancer who won numerous competitions and awards. She is also one of the kindest, most caring people I know. When we first met, 12 years ago, I didn’t speak a word of English as I am a daughter of Czech immigrants who moved to New York a month before Ana and I met. She was the first person in this strange new place who made me feel like I belonged. Every day she would help me with homework and practise English with me. After 3 months of her constant help, I became nearly fluent.

A week ago, something unthinkable happened to Ana.

Something people don’t understand about child abuse

One of the things that I really hate is that people don’t understand that survivors act differently and respond to their traumas in different ways.

I’m a survivor of csa and so is my friend. Her trauma made her extremely hypersexual while I could literally cry if someone even touched me.

My bf is a survivor of csa, I can talk for hours about my trauma if I felt safe enough while he NEVER brings it up.

A friend of mine is a survivor of emotional abuse and so am I. Her trauma made her angry while mine made me soft and defenseless.

My bf remembers every little detail about his trauma, while I repressed most of my childhood and traumas.

There’s no special “criteria” that you should fill in order to be a “valid” survivor, and there’s no specific way you should act if you were abused.

People respond to their traumas differently and it’s okay, your abuse is STILL valid no matter how you respond to it.

so there is this webcomic called Grim Tales From Down Below based on The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and there’s this one page that freaks the fuck outta me

like, Mandy demands to Grim to see her hourglass (which is the thing that defines when it’s her time to die) and then he shows it to her, and it’s already empty. So Mandy asks “why didn’t you take my soul yet” and Grim doesn’t really know how to respond and then Mandy goes to the kitchen and Grim asks “what are you doing?” and–

and moTHERFUCKER

THIS PAGE ALWAYS MADE ME SHIVER BECAUSE THAT IS EXACTLY HOW MANDY ACTUALLY ACTS IN THE CARTOON, EXCEPT WE DON’T GET TO SEE THIS DARK FUCKING SIDE OF HER DEMENTED MIND BECAUSE IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE A KIDS’ SHOW I MEAN FUCK IF YOU TAKE THE “KIDS’ SHOW” ELEMENT, MANDY IS PROBABLY THE MOST DISTURBING CHARACTER I HAVE EVER SEEN

SHE OWNS DEATH. SHE DOESN’T GIVE A FUCK

i would break every single bone in my body if that would make you smile. i would slit my fucking wrists if that’d make you laugh. i will kill ANYBODY if they make you unhappy to stop you from crying. i love you. you are so pure and innocent in this DISGUSTING world. if anybody tells me otherwise they’ll be sorry they said anything when they are bleeding till they DIE. you shouldnt cry. i am the person who deserves to cry, for how lucky and blessed i am to be in your presence.
