Rape is a crime | |
Break the silence (3/8) | |
|
|
Whatever the circumstances of the aggression, you are not guilty for what happened. You shouldn't feel ashamed. As much as possible don't stay alone. | |
Perhaps you're afraid of the reactions of your family and friends. You need for people to believe you. Don't be afraid to call upon a person whom you trust and try to explain what happened, even if you can't say everything at once. Write it if you aren't able to speak, express yourself in whatever way works for you | |
Silence is the first of several obstacles to overcome: the more you remain silent, the greater the risk of difficulties. |
|
SOS VIOLS |
If you find no one or if you prefer to remain anonymous, you can call the SOS VIOLS switchboard (anonymous and free throughout France). |
Your revolt is legitimate. You need the aggressor to be found, that justice is dispensed. |

What to do just after the aggression? |
