Quiet Strength

di No Algorithm (Autore)

No Algorithm, 2025

This book is for every woman who has ever thought, "It was my fault," "I should be over it by now," or "No one would understand what happened to me." Written in clear, everyday language, this guide walks gently with survivors of sexual assault through the messy reality of trauma, without blaming, minimizing, or using complicated clinical jargon. You'll find: Straightforward explanations of how trauma affects the brain, body, emotions, memory, and relationships. Practical tools for coping with flashbacks, nightmares, shame, triggers, anxiety, and numbness. Step-by-step support for rebuilding boundaries, handling intimacy, and navigating work, school, and daily life after assault. Honest discussion of crisis moments, including self-harm and suicidal thoughts, and how to build a personal safety plan. A full chapter written for partners, friends, and family, to help them understand what you're going through and how to support you without pushing or judging. Reflections on justice, forgiveness, and the future – including the important truth that you do not have to forgive, report, or "move on" in anyone else's way or on anyone else's timeline. This is not a miracle cure and not a replacement for professional help. It is a companion: something you can read in small pieces on hard nights and lonely mornings, when you need to hear that your reactions make sense and that you are not "crazy" or broken beyond repair. Whether you are just beginning to face what happened or have been carrying it for years, this book offers understanding, concrete strategies, and a quiet reminder: You are more than what was done to you. Your story is not over yet. Content note: This book includes discussion of sexual assault, trauma, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts, always in a respectful and non-graphic way.
