I’m 23 years old and I’m Italian.
When I was 16, I was raped by a photographer, who was 36 at that time….I was feeling so bad and so in shame that I didn’t tell anybody for years. But after a strong depression last year, I found the strength to speak out, and confess to my parents.
Only by telling my story and so reviving it, I’m realizing that it wasn’t my fault.
It’s hard when you are young and alone, that’s why I want to thank you really much for your mission!!!
Dear Lucrezia,
Bravo to you! I am so glad you have come to understand that this wasn’t your fault. Like Linor says, rape is never the victim’s fault!” You are really brave and I am so proud of you! Light and love, Alissa
