Being a crime victim actually gave me tools for life.

.

I'm a sex crime victim, and I survived the incidents by enduring. I tightened my lips and even though the enduring lasted a long time, I lived through it. 

Now decades later when I get in a situation that's intolerable, I seem to get through it better than my friends. Because I endure. I know it's going to end eventually so I stick it out and go through it and in the end, I survive, as always.  So being a crime victim actually gave me tools for life.
