hey my loves <3
i guess now is the time to tell you why i’ve been so gone the past couple of years. TW/ S/A, mental health, SH.
january through june of 2024, i was TAD to a ship that homeport shifted to japan. one week after being here, a guy on that ship sexually assaulted me in the bar and proceeded to follow me out an sexually harass me to get me to his hotel.
i reported it, but being underway with him was a lot of mental stress, let alone being in the middle of the ocean for three months. i began to relapse in self harm really bad. i sought help, and had the most amazing doc onboard.
flash forward, october 2024, i get to my new ship out here in japan. i’m underway with them for a month. we pull into india and meet other sailors. my liberty buddies decided to invite them drinking with us. the indian sailor drugs me. the two japanese sailors we had met sexually assaulted me. my liberty buddies did nothing. i didn’t know it happened until they told me two days later.
i was flown back to japan for my own mental health and safety after i reported the assault, and began receiving the proper mental health care. over 2025, ive been working on my mental health and bouncing around medications. im currently still waiting for the outcome of that case, its pending.
between my mental health, getting separated from the military, my case, and getting married, i have been crazy busy and overwhelmed. i’m sorry ive been M.I.A.
to all my victims out there and anyone else struggling, i will always be a safe space for you. i love you all. you’re seen. please remember it does get better, it just takes a lot of time.
take care of yourselves, my loves. i love you all. feel free to dm me on instagram @ piercethe_vikk <3
thank you so much for all the patience and understanding. i’ll get back to regular updates whenever i can <3
