SurvivorStruggle's Journal

I just walked to the corner store for cigs and gatorade all by myself. It is the first time I have left the apartment without someone with me since the last rape. To get to the corner store I have to walk right by the apartment building I was raped in. So it was terrifying, but I have to get on with my life, I can't sit in the dark in the fetal position rocking back and forth like I want to. I can't let this destroy me. So I am taking baby steps to move on. Corner stores, going out with friends, even if I have to leave the movie early.
