How Do I Get Over A Serious Sexual Assault?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    First of all I'm so sorry that you have to ask.

    Next, and this is very important - It is NOT your fault!
    It is so very common for men and women to blame themselves after an unwanted and unprovoked sexual attack. But you did not do anything wrong. Your personality, the clothes you wear, the street you walk on, the choices you made did not mean that it was ok for this person to do this to you. Believe that.

    You also need to talk to someone. I know this will be really hard. And no it doesn't have to be your parents or the police if you don't want. But please speak to someone you can trust and open up to. You may find that this will affect a lot more of your life a lot longer if you don't. You don't have to be alone through this.

    There are plenty of people you could speak to anonymously too, like Childline or the Samaritans. You can also look up some local support groups or web forums. Don't suffer alone in silence.
