Let us break the stigma. These are some of the Myths and facts about GBV. #ENDGBV #16DAYSOFACTIVISM #MENTALHEALTHMATTERS

Support is Available for Survivors of GBV – You Are Not Alone Please remember that you are not alone. There are organizations like She-Hive Association Lesotho that offer support, guidance, and resources to help you heal and regain control of your life. If you feel ready to take the next step, know that seeking help is your choice. If you decide to pursue criminal charges, you can begin by visiting your local police station, where you'll be directed on how to proceed. From there, you'll be guided to the hospital where you can receive critical medical care. This includes emergency contraceptives, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) to prevent HIV, and treatment for any injuries sustained. It’s important to take care of yourself physically, emotionally, and mentally, and you deserve all the care and protection available to you. Whether you choose to pursue legal action or not, please go to the hospital for the medical support you need including therapy. Your safety and well-being matter. Reach out, take that first step, and know that there are people ready to stand by you every step of the way. #YouAreNotAlone #GBVSupport #TakeTheFirstStep #16daysofactivism
