I speak to a lot of women who have been through varying levels of sexual trauma. Ptsd isn’t a condition exclusive to military veterans.
Any traumatic stress or event can affect a person for a lifetime. Sexual trauma is no different. The overwhelming majority of women who been through sexual trauma have some level of PTSD. That trauma can continue to manifest itself in that person's behavior for a lifetime if it goes unchecked. It can take many years of active intentful healing to curb some of the effects of traumatic experiences. Ptsd symptoms and coping mechanisms in women can include emotional numbing, guilt or shame, hypervigilance, avoidance, withdraw, promiscuity, depression, and anxiety amongst many others things. This video isn’t about the symptoms of PTSD though. It’s about how women who have experienced negative sexual events can better relate to their partners or potential partners.
Women who have suffered from some form of sexual trauma often write to me about how to better relay that information to men they date. If and when they should share those details.
In My very unprofessional opinion; tell a man when your ready as long as you’re not holding him responsible for knowledge about yourself that you haven’t given or divulged. If your PTSD is easily triggered it’s best to at least tell him which behaviors to avoid and that you’ll explain later. That’s assuming you’re aware of your condition and it’s behavioral manifestations. If you’ve been through sexual trauma And you haven’t already, Seek help. Learn about how its affected you. It’s all too easy to hurt your relationships exhibiting negative behaviors not understanding where they come from or how they are triggered. How can a man relate or correctly navigate your pain points if you don’t even understand them? Please seek help.
How men to relate to women who have experienced sexual trauma has a lot to do with the symptoms of PTSD she may exhibit. A man in his nature may do very well responding to one of your symptoms of PTSD from sexual trauma while being completely ill-equipped to handle other manifestations in your behavior. Without the knowledge wisdom and understanding about your particular way of coping a man can easily misstep or trigger emotions in you related to your trauma.

Please share this video!! Some people really need to hear this!
I love how it’s a vidoe for women but not for men
My boyfriend just raped me. I still want to be with him but now I’m scared of him and don’t trust him. He said he was sorry and that it wasn’t my fault. I was sexually abused as a child and lost my virginity to rape at 19 I was then raped by my uncles step son and never told anyone besides my mom sister and a couple friends. I then got in an abusive relationship with my ex boyfriend and gave him sex whenever he wanted where ever he wanted to because I didn’t want him to hurt me. When we broke up I was broken. I feel like I always pick the worst type of men. Maybe it’s because of my trauma.
The way you explain with such clarity 👏🏼 so grateful
I'm an sexual assault survivor
I've been receiving counselling since age 9. Throughout my adult life I tried so many different ways of relating to my dates and eventually came to the conclusion – it's better for me to stay single. I know this kind of lifestyle is not for everyone, but after so many therapists, and hundreds of hours spent on working on myself I don't see significant progress in my romantic life, and you know what? That's okay. 😊 There are many other ways of creating meaningful relationships. ✨️
Thank you! Very well said.
Thank you ❤️
