You get slapped. at work. while just doing your work. You get slapped. After a moment you carry on. everyone sees it. they know. no one comes to make sure you are ok. Excuses are flying as to the mental health of the person who assaulted you. they are trying to justify it all. It is all excuses, you were assaulted by someone who entered your personal space and chose to put their hands on you while you were doing your job. You are being blamed. It is confusing and hurtful. you were assaulted. No one came to your defense in the moment or moments after it happened, you just continue what you need to do to finish the job at hand. you have not processed any of it because you are in shock. you continued on while he was allowed to stay. The excuses for his actions are mounting. You are now to be blamed. the repercussions are on both, not one. Some will always find you at fault. this will stay with you always. it was just a slap. this is not just a slap, it was trama and it will never leave you and will always carry it with you. It never leaves. the humiliation. People who you admire will let you down. it will take months for the 'slap' to stop hurting physically, you will feel for months. and you will never forget. unfortunately, for you, you will have to relive this on social media and other outlets as they try to figure out why and make excuses. I hope you can cry, I cried for you. I hope you heal. Be well.
