My mom was raped when she was a teenager. Though, she has been through many trials in her life, that was probably the most devastating. She has never fully recovered from it.

Although, I'm not her, I can see why she can't recover. She has not forgiven the person who raped her. She hates him. She is not a hateful person but she hates him.

It's probably the most difficult thing you will ever have to do on your own but you MUST forgive or you will be a prisoner for the rest of your life as my poor mom has been.

Pray that God can help you forgive. I'm so sorry you had to go through this.

well,, my friend was raped too and she always thought these:
-Rape is never your fault, even if you were afraid to fight back or if you put yourself in a risky situation. No one deserves to be raped. Try not to blame yourself.
-You may feel worse because you knew and trusted your attacker. In fact, most rapists are known by the people they assault. A rapist looks like any other guy, so it's not true that you "should have known better."
-Try to talk things out with a friend you trust or a rape crisis counselor.
-Rape survivors suffer from many different stress reactions after being assaulted, including: anxiety, insomnia, nightmares, loss of appetite, fear, shock, disbelief, fatigue, headaches, nausea, overeating, flashbacks, mood swings, shame, anger, guilt, irritability, and suicidal thoughts. These feelings are normal for someone in your situation, so you are not alone. (But please get counseling, if you haven't already, if you are having even casual thoughts about killing yourself)

Well sister revenge is the best way to heal......Report the crime otherwise you would'nt heal life time.

I haven't ever been in that situation, but if you want somebody to talk to, you can IM me if you want.

you just need to know there is absolutely nothing you could have done and nothing you can do. Of course its easier said than done, but constantly remind yourself: " why stress over something you can't control?"

you need to report it hun... then surround yourself with positive things.. support groups and such.. sorry you had that happen to you..

Your dad did this? Have you contacted the authorities? As you seek closure and the counsel of those who have survived and gone on to productive lives, I caution you to avoid those "misery loves company" types.
Yes, you were hurt and you were a victim. Now, you are a survivor and that is something that you must choose every day. Good Luck in your healing.

There has to be a support group for people who have been raped that you may benefit from. Check with your therapist, and I am sure when you share your story with people who have been where you have that you will find comfort.
I did have a friend who was raped when she was in college, and as awful and hard and traumatic as it was, she did heal and is very happily married woman now.
