Some of you have noticed that Iāve been uncharacteristically offline. This is why, and I remain on leave for a few weeks to handle a PTSD relapse. @CJR was dogged in its pursuit of my story, and because of what I do and who I am, I felt that I had no choice but answer their questions honestly. I wouldnāt wish this on anyone, but I also believe it was a chance to prove that I mean what I say to the women who have trusted me with theirs. I have to believe that thereās power in telling the truth ā and in journalism.

What happened to me was deeply private, and I HATE talking about it. I only shared it publicly in hopes that it might help someone. The hardest part of this experience has been learning how many other women he hurt after me, in almost the exact same way. 1/5
