Game Of Thrones star Esme Bianco, who played prostitute Ros in the popular American fantasy drama, recently made a shocking confession on social media which has spread like wildfire.

Esme also revealed that she is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder and also taking medication for the same. Her post will definitely send chills down your spine. She wrote, “This is my back. The injuries you see are real. The whipping that gave me these wounds was filmed in the name of “art”. I used to look at this photo with pride because I thought it was a sign of great devotion to my abuser. Now I look at it with horror. Despite the many years that have passed since this happened my night terrors and PTSD symptoms continue to get worse. I am a domestic violence survivor and #IAmNotOk.”
Brave Esme also shared a painful encounter with her fans by revealing, “This photo was taken on my birthday many years ago. The night before I had been locked in the bedroom alone and had not slept. I was surviving on very little food and was physically and mentally exhausted – I often wasn’t allowed to sleep. In this photo my boyfriend is giving me my birthday present. Despite the plastered on smile I can see the emptiness and fear in my eyes. We went for dinner later and he spent the whole evening berating me because he didn’t want to go out. I was not ok then and #IAmNotOk now.”
Esme feels fortunate that she is able to take the right medication to treat her anxiety and PTSD.
