I Am Not A Rape Victim I Am A Survivor Of Rape

It's been 8 years and I'm only now capable, on a good day, of not blaming myself for it. I've put myself in many unsafe situations out of a stupid desire of self destruction. My mind had blocked out something that happened last summer until yesterday and now I feel like all the progress I've made over the course of 2016 is erased. I have to learn to stop blaming myself again. To [i]forgive[/i] myself. I feel like a mess...

That is okay. Recovery is a process. Some days are better than others. We all try to find that one thing we could have done better. But ultimately there is not a good reason for another person to force themselves on you. (((Hugs)))

Thank you so much for your kind words... I needed to hear this :)

@Winchestiel: You will have better days ahead. It is just hard to imagine that right now.

You'll get there :). You've found ways to cope with it until now & even so, i'm sure you will be able too. That progress cannot be diminished so fast, over one day. You're strong, you're brave & you are not a fault. Best of luck, you got this.

@Winchestiel: Honey, we all have our days where we can't just handle ourselves. Today seems to be that day for me, yesterday was yours. Don't think so low of yourself. Have any hobbies to entertain yourself, whenever you're feeling down?

@Randomexistence: Yea, you're right. I just don't understand why I had to put myself in a dangerous situation again. I'm sorry you're having a bad day. If you wanna talk about it, I'm here for you

@Winchestiel: Thank you, actually going to bed soon, but keep in mind. You can message me whenever also & although you did put yourself in a dangerous situation. Just be sure to be safe, one mistake shouldn't rid your progress. I don't know personally the struggle, but i did have loved ones that had to deal with this & even, some that could not. So, be safe, best of luck & have a good night :)

You could not do it to yourself, it was done to you. Please stop blaming you
