Around the three year mark of my relationship with David, my struggles with trust became too much to deal with on my own so I decided to talk to some friends about it. After a photo shoot one day I spoke to the make up team I worked with about my situation. My intention was to get insight on how to trust again after being betrayed, but I ended up providing further details about my experiences with LO, in order to give them context. That was the first time I ever told anyone my story.The feeling of finally getting such heart rending feelings off my chest came with a sense of relief I hadn’t expected. I had no idea how much I’d been needing to speak it all out loud. Not only did my colleagues listen to me, but each of them then responded with similar stories of their own. I felt further relieved to know I wasn’t the only one who had been in this type of relationship, but it was also jarring to get a sense of how common it was and how no one really seemed to be speaking about it. Why had so many of us gone through this? And if it was so rampant why weren’t we educated about it in school? Why had there been nothing in place to prepare us for this?In this moment a seed was planted which would eventually grow into ReclaimYourVoice. -- source link
