Hi guys. I am Fluttershy. She is timid and sometimes vulnerable but when it comes to standing up for herself and those close to her she knows how to kick butt! Go girl!
So here is my blog of random trials and headaches and hopefully some nice stuff too.
To introduce myself (although since these pics were taken I have 12 ear piercings and a nose stud and the tattoo featured in this excerpt) I am the abuse victim form the BBC articles published few years ago (few links below):

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-surrey-21536943Being sexually abused as a child age 9-13 was bad enough but the real sting was not being believed by the church who covered for Cundick, who was a well-known lay preacher there. I was silenced and called a liar many times over the years by people who should have known better. The BBC, following the Eastbourne Herald newspaper and others, gave me a voice and for that I am grateful. Being heard, listened to and believed is a huge relief as a victim and ends the cycles of silence and the hold of secrecy of your abuser. So whether its a shout in the press, ringing someone like the Samaritans, or just confiding in a trusted friend, I would encourage victims to take whatever steps you can to break the abusers hold of silence and secrecy – it helped me breathe properly for the first time.
And remember – you are beautiful.
Fluttershy. xxx
