My life wouldn't be as calm as it is now

Mia had been hiding lots of things for a very long time.

"I was encouraged to call them. So I did."

"I had been sexually assaulted but finally told someone."

I finally got the courage to go on web counselling at Kids Helpline and then I was encouraged to call them. So I did. It was hard at first but then it got easy. My counsellor asked what had been going on for me and it took a while for me to tell her but I got there in the end. I told her that I had been sexually assaulted by a couple of people, but the main person was my ex-best friend.

I struggle every day, but at least I know I'm not alone.

When I told her of this I was not in a good place. But she helped me get through it. I have Kids Helpline. They do an amazing job to help people. My life wouldn't be as calm as it is now if it wasn't for them.
