Was I Sexually Assaulted Quiz

Sometimes, experiences leave us with questions we don’t quite know how to ask. If you’re unsure about something that happened to you—especially an encounter that felt uncomfortable, confusing, or left you emotionally unsettled—you might find yourself wondering: Was that okay? Was that consensual?

Sexual assault isn’t always violent or obvious. It can show up in subtle ways, especially when pressure, manipulation, or blurred boundaries are involved. You might have memory gaps, or feel uncertain because the situation was complex or disguised as something else.

This quiz is designed as a gentle, self-reflective tool to help you explore your thoughts and feelings around a situation that may be troubling you. It’s not meant to label your experience, but to support your personal reflection in a safe, guided way.

Please take care of yourself as you go through these questions. It’s okay to pause or stop at any point.

Note: This quiz is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional legal, medical, or psychological advice. If you're feeling unsure or need support, please consider speaking with a therapist, counselor, or someone you trust. Your feelings are valid, and you deserve to be supported.
