Not just the facts, but the aftermath is alarming.
Victims of sexual assault suffer from anxiety, stress, depression, bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. They are more likely to attempt suicide. It is extremely difficult to cope with the psychological response of the victims. Most of the survivors have feelings of self blame, guilt and shame.
