My Journey to Recover from Trauma: Special Podcast Episode. John Jay Wiley was a guest on the Sexual Assault Survivor Stories (SASS) podcast, it is important to note that I have not personally experienced sexual assault, we delved deeply into the traumatic events I encountered as a police officer. We discussed the profound impact on me, my family, and my journey to recover from that trauma. Additionally, we explored my role as a patrol officer investigating sex crimes, which surprisingly triggered a significant revelation from Dave about his own traumatic experiences.

The SASS podcast aims to provide victims and survivors of sexual assault and rape with valuable information and a forum for understanding the complexities, adversities, and victories of surviving and healing. It’s not only for victims and survivors but also for learning about trauma-informed interviewing, the neuroscience of trauma and memory, understanding the victim impact of rape and sexual assault, recognizing the psychophysiological responses to interpersonal trauma, and developing healing strategies and best-practice responses. The primary goal is to help bring justice to victims and survivors by sharing experiences and spreading awareness, as we all know someone affected by sexual assault or rape.

In the US, someone is sexually assaulted every 98 seconds. Over one-third of women have experienced rape, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner. Most victims of rape and sexual assault are women (91%), with the remaining 9% being men. Women are more likely to be assaulted by someone they know than by a stranger.

Millions of American women have experienced rape, with young women at particular risk. As of 1998, an estimated 17.7 million American women had been victims of attempted or completed rape. Among juvenile victims, 82% are female, and 90% of adult rape victims are female. Women aged 16-19 are four times more likely than the general population to be victims, and college students aged 18-24 are three times more likely to experience sexual violence than their non-college peers. The interview is available as a free podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, our website, or most major podcast platforms.

Feeling afraid during and after a traumatic situation is natural. Fear triggers the body's “fight-or-flight” response, helping us avoid or respond to potential threats. People may experience a range of reactions following trauma, and most recover from initial symptoms over time. However, those who continue to struggle may be diagnosed with PTSD.

PTSD can affect anyone, regardless of age. This includes combat veterans, individuals who have experienced or witnessed physical or sexual assault, abuse, accidents, disasters, or other serious events. Those with PTSD may feel stressed or frightened even when they are not in danger.

According to the National Center for PTSD, a program of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, about six out of every 100 people will experience PTSD at some point in their lives. Women are more likely to develop PTSD than men. Certain aspects of the traumatic event and some biological factors, such as genetics, may increase the likelihood of developing PTSD.
