I didn’t really know what to put for the topic—
Back last February, I was SA’d, and I can’t get past it. When I try to confide in someone, they say “Well you didn’t get raped” and it hurts. I know i didn’t, but it was still assault, and it hurts so bad. I had a flashback, and started clawing at my chest, one of the main spots I was assaulted, and I did this until my chest was bloody and my skin was torn. I have no one to talk to about this, because if I tell my family, they will tell the police. I just don’t know what to do anymore, and I don’t want to keep living with this.
