Physical, Emotional and Psychological Effects of Sexual Assault

While some survivors of sexual assault recover from their attacks relatively quickly, others have to deal with the effects throughout their lifetimes. The effects of sexual assault can include physical, emotional and psychological symptoms, such as:

• Severe pain, risk of disease and injuries
• Depression
• Loss of self-esteem
• Substance abuse
• Psychological disorders
• Insomnia and panic attacks
• Self-mutilation and eating disorders
• Suicidal thoughts

In addition to the criminal charges that should be brought against an assailant, a civil lawsuit can obtain compensation for medical bills, therapy, physical rehabilitation and other expenses.

It may also be possible to pursue additional compensation from a third party who allowed the sexual assault to occur, such as a shopping mall or apartment complex owner who did not provide appropriate safety and security measures to protect against an attack.
