Coming to terms with what happened -
January 12th 2023, 08:47 PM
So, I started seeing a Therapist in early December and she asked if I'd experienced various traumas, one of them being sexual assault.
I've spent most of my life running from the memory of what happened, because I didn't want to accept that I had been raped. I tried to block out that memory and just kept running from it but in that moment, I couldn't for some reason.
My question, the thing I need help with - How do you come to terms with being raped after it's been nearly 20 years? I still wrestle with it and trying to accept what happened, happened, and it won't help me to run from it. I just... Don't know how to because any time I think about it, I get insane impostor syndrome.
