For anybody interested, below is a list I've compiled of some decent resources for those who have been abused or assaulted (a good percentage of us, women and men.)
Maybe there's something here to help you or someone you care about.
1. The Broken Spirits Network
This site deals with child abuse, sexual abuse, and domestic violence.
2. Survivors Art Foundation
I really like this site. It is dedicated to healing through art, and art through healing. There are some galleries with beautiful paintings, photographs, etc. This site encompasses many types of "surviving."
3. Sexual Abuse of Males
I realize that sexual abuse and violence is many times directed at women (as was toward me), but It's important to acknowledge that as many as 1 in 6 boys will be sexually abused by the time they are 16 years old. That's 1 in 6 too many.
4. RAINN- Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network
Self-explanatory.
5. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) books
Some PTSD books on Amazon.com
