  • "He touched you didn't he? He did it to me too"
    Jun 19 2024

    Content warning: Themes of sexual assault. Seth grew up in an unhappy and abusive household. At 10 years of age he found an escape to the house of an older man who invited him to play video games and have pizza - a "kids paradise".. but before long the touching started, and this progressed to expose Seth to sexual experiences no child should be put through.

    When, at 15, a friend opened up that he too had been touched by this man, they went together to report him to the police.

    Hear Seth's brave story and his desire to support other victims to recognise the power in speaking out. He wants others to learn to focus on healing themselves, as he has learnt to do for himself.

  • A childhood consumed by abuse, an adulthood transformed by self-compassion
    May 22 2024

    Content warning: Themes of sexual assault


    Violet's earliest childhood memory is of being abused. She was prostituted by her mother from a young age, then "bought" by her grandfather to suffer yet more.

    At some point, she turned the page, and started writing her own story. She now has an organisation that supports others who have suffered.

    This is a heartbreakingly honest story, from a woman who has found hope where we might assume there was none to be found. As Violet says, "As long as you are breathing, there is hope".


    The views and opinions expressed by content providers to our channel are not necessary those held by Something to Say.

    "Transforming pain into compassion is the alchemy of the soul, where wounds become wisdom and empathy blooms from the depths of our own suffering."

  • My abusers took photos and used them to shame me into silence.
    Apr 24 2024

    Content warning: Themes of sexual assault


    Annie spent years carrying the shame of her abuse, and trying to bury it within herself. When people first heard of her abuse she was victim blamed and made to feel disgusting. Finally someone told her "this was not your fault" and she was able to believe it. What message of support would you give to Annie?
