Victoria Kelly's Story: From Childhood Trauma to Healing

You don't have to do it alone, like I said that, pope, you don't have to do it alone anymore, never again already.
What happens when a child endures unimaginable horrors almost from birth? Victoria Kelly from Minneapolis, Minnesota, shares her harrowing yet inspiring journey on this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now'. Victoria's life was marked by repeated sexual assaults starting as a baby, physical abuse from her alcoholic father, and emotional neglect. Living on the wrong side of the tracks, she believed this was just the way life was for her and her mother.
Her early years were filled with fear and isolation, leading her to develop Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD). Despite spending years in and out of mental hospitals, Victoria found solace in the kindness of the staff and the support of a dedicated psychiatrist who helped her for over a decade. She also turned to alcohol at a young age but eventually found sobriety through a 12-step group.
Victoria's story is one of resilience and recovery, showing how support and understanding can make a world of difference. This episode isn't just about recounting past trauma; it's about the strength it takes to speak out and seek help. Victoria, now a long-time volunteer with NAASCA, emphasizes the importance of breaking the silence around child abuse. The podcast also highlights the crucial role of community and survivor-led support groups in the healing process.
Through organizations like NAASCA, survivors can connect with others who understand their pain and find hope for the future. Victoria's journey is a powerful reminder that while the scars of childhood trauma run deep, healing is possible with the right support. Tune in to hear more about her story and how she turned her life around, offering hope and inspiration to others facing similar battles.
