As an childhood incest survivor, i can relate to the complex, overwhelming emotions that follow a sexual assault. It was not your fault, and I hope you have found the strength to report this to the police and follow-through with prosecution.
RAINN.org is an excellent resource, check it out:
http://million.rainn.org/
1-800-656-HOPE / 1-800-656-4673 - FREE + CONFIDENTIAL
Please, call the number. Write it down and put it in your wallet. If you have a cell phone, program it into your list of contacts. Then it will be there when you're ready.
Find a therapist and maybe a victim's/survivors group, to help you realize that you are not alone, and that you will get through it in time. You have nothing to be ashamed of. It will be an ongoing process, but you will learn to trust and feel hope again.
Good luck!

It doesn't go away easy and the scars will also be there forever. I can tell you from experience you do heal and you have to talk about it till you can't talk about anymore then some more. It gets easier and easier. Also finding a survivor support group. I know it was a hard recovery for me and now I am a stronger and happier person. I had to learn to let go and not let it control my life and that I will never let any body but me control my life. It sounds easy but it is not. I also was put on anxiety meds for awhile. I wish you the best.

I feel so sorry and you know what, it's good you asked, but this is a public question. You really can't do anything about it and you have to live with it. It's really sad and you wanna die, right-my friend got raped by her dad. I didn't get raped, but you should pray and stuff. Go tell the police and stuff. Email me so I can know more details; I can help you-xlildoggygrlx@yahoo.com.

I am so sorry.
It would be very helpful to have counseling for it. I went through this too and it helped me deal with the pain.
I wish I had magic words to take this from you...I'll be pulling for you!
