Freedom is Terrifying

He’s free for the first time in years — and it terrifies him.
Damion’s story is not just about surviving. It’s about learning how to live with what’s been done to him, how to breathe through the panic, how to stand alone in a quiet room and know he’s allowed to take up space.

Breaking Free is a slow, raw, and tender dive into what comes after escape — the awkward new freedoms, the trembling small hopes, and the moments when all you can do is cry until it doesn’t hurt so much.

Read if you crave a story that pulls no punches on what trauma leaves behind and shows what it costs to heal.
