Patrick Stewart Talks about Domestic Violence and PTSD

Image
Published on  May 29, 2013 This was my question to Sir Patrick Stewart at Comicpalooza 2013. I wanted to thank Patrick Stewart for his speech at Amnesty International it personally help me put a name to the abuse, sexual abuse in my case, I had experienced in the past. He responded very passionately and the last thing I thought I would get at was a heartfelt hug. When he embraced me he told me "You never have to go through that again, you're safe now". I just kept thanking him. I hope everyone who needs help in abusive or violent situations has the courage to do so. There are people willing and ready to help you. There are hotline numbers a little farther down. This video is owned by Oswald Vinueza and full recording can be found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWkLO... I posted an extended response about the experience here on my blog http://lemonsweetie.tumblr.com/post/5... If you need help, please reach out! Refuge Hotline in UK 0808-2000-247 Combat Stress ...
