Default Hi Candy

Nice to meet you.

I relate to your story. I also am about to become a lawyer but the only reason I did it was because no-one would help me with my gang rape, not the police (they refused to interview a key witness who would have corroborated everything I told them), not the church where I was raped (it makes them look bad), nor friends, nor the legal system. So I made myself go through the hell of law school (which is exactly what it was, studying while having PTSD is tough) with only the comfort of one day being able to get justice.

I also was abused since age 5, and suffered one PTSD inducing event afetr another. It's been helpful reading other people's stories here so stick around : )

Take care,
Audrey
