A 25-year-old woman who has suffered sexual abuse ever since she was 13 years old has decided to reclaim her body and take back her dignity by sharing naked photos of herself.
At 13, a family member tried to sexually assault Suzie Larson. The person also talked ‘graphically’ about her body and later tried to rape her. Suzie managed to make it through the ordeal but she said it left a lot of scars, all on the inside.
Over the next six years, the woman who is from Georgia was raped by three different men. This resulted in low self-esteem and caused her to develop an eating disorder as well as suicidal thoughts from the age of 15.
Now she’s decided to reclaim her body for herself and boost her confidence by posting naked on social media.
Suszie says: "I began therapy and started learning words for my abuse. It hurt because I’d kept it in my whole life, then suddenly everything was inside out.
"I began feeling stronger, I decided to come out to family and friends about my abuse. It was a very hard decision because I didn’t know how everyone would react, but I wanted them to know the real me.
"From there I think I began to have the confidence to reclaim my body. Showing my body, whether nude or clothed, is a way of releasing it from the pain and shame.
"I believe women deserve to be able to feel worthy, beautiful, strong and loved. No matter what size you are, you deserve to love your body exactly how it is. Embracing the little imperfections as parts of yourself is something that makes you uniquely you."
