Need help?
Talking about online sexual abuse can be difficult. You may feel insecure, ashamed, or think that no one understands what you are going through. Sharing your experience with someone else is called ‘disclosure’. Disclosure is the first step in finding help. It is an important step, but often also a difficult one. Research shows that 82% of young people who chat with the Centre for Sexual Violence (CSG) find it difficult to seek help, because they, for example, are afraid of the reactions of others. There are anonymous chat services at CSG, Helpwanted and Fier that can support you safely and are for free. You don’t have to do this alone. Take that first step and receive the help you need.
