....

I'm scared of rape.

Just hearing the word upsets me.

Is that bad?

I know it sounds like a silly question.

I'm positive you are not the only one. Rape was never a word NOT to be afraid of.

It's normal for many people for the thoughts associated with the word.

Rape is a very scary event, so yes it is a scary word. Have you ever been raped Grace?

Yes. I've been raped.

I guess I'm just feeling a little down about it today.

Oh hugs, my dear friend Grace. Rape is a terrible event, I am sorry you had to go through that. I was raped 3 yrs ago too. It's hard to deal with. Post what you are feeling, it helps to get your emotions out.

Grace, I remember I responded to your last post, I remember your story now. How are thing coming along?

It's very normal to still be traumatized by the rape, esp. if you were a rape victim. Then again, even if you were never rape, that word would give the creeps to anybody.

So how is your progess doing, have you gone to counseling/therapy yet??

Hey Guys! It's me.

I don't really want to say how I'm feeling, ya know.

I could say all sorts of things, because I have so many feeling inside of me right now.

But I have to go to the police station in a couple of days and I have to keep myself together.

I don't know, I don't want to say anything negative.

I don't want to feel angry or scared. I don't just want to let myself go, you know?

I'm almost there.

Ahhh!!!!!

Thanks guys for all of your support!!!!

Sincerely,

Grace
