I agree with the above poster that each individual that goes through a sexual assault/rape processes it differently and brings it out at different times. My advice is you will know when and what to say when the timing is right. You are your voice in this and your advocate. When you are ready bring it out and bring it strong. This will not only help you, but it will help many others in the future.

As for being touched or trusting others to touch you take that at your own speed. My Therapist told me that only I will know when and who I will trust touching me or even in my case discussing my issue with. Right now and it has been just over one year since my 6 month ordeal has ended that I trust just my closest family members and really close friends I have made at my new school to even touch me. So take that at your own speed and only you will know when you are comfortable with that.
