Summary
In this chapter, Shan and Max discuss the delicate, shattering reality of childhood sexual abuse. So often we think of sexual abuse as single, violating action. However, what many of us fail to understand is that for the child involved, the impacts of sexual abuse extend beyond mere physicality. It impacts the brain, the sense of self and - as Max reveals - the heart, as well. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues, we'd like to suggest the following support services: Lifeline: 13 11 14 Kids Helpline: 1800 55 1800 1800 Respect: 1800 737 732 MensLine Australia: 1300 78 99 78 If you have a story you would like to share, or if you are interested in supporting our show, you can reach us at [email protected] or on Facebook and Instagram at @traumatalespodcast.
