I would say the reasons are the same for survivors as well. Healing requires taking responsibility for your actions going forward, and no longer having the “victim” excuse, and that identity can become so ingrained that it’s hard to let go of. I think this is a big area of struggle for any survivors who are public about their story and involved with other survivors, how to be part of that community, but also becoming more than a survivor, to be something else.
The something else is worth it, but can you overcome the comfort of your current identity?
