hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I can see you are from Australia what part of Australia are you from so I can look up a place for you to go to or ring. this site has some good advice link removed The important thing is to report it straight away. Go to someone you can trust a friend or family member and go to the hospital or police straight away. What this person did to you is very wrong and it needs to be reported.. Dont forget about it, you need to tell someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Call kids helpline as well they always have good advice and are very supportive, and you can remain annoymous. the website is link removed and the number is 1800 55 1800, please call them they will know what to do. Thinking of you and hope you will call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 i have heard of it but i don't want to report it or anything because what if he gets off or they don't find him. he might come and get revenge for me telling people about it!

hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 just call kidshelp line they will know what to do, even if you dont want to report, you should tell someone (such as the helpline) and also go to the hospital to get checked out. the most important thing at the moment is to talk to someone, like the helpline. or someone you can trust, because you have to tell someone, otherwise it will end up being more and more painful.

rusty_boi Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 its important you report it i know you dont want to for your reasons, but my sister is a police officer and she tells me alot of rapes go un reported because of fear or whatever but if you do report it you may prevent hiom from doing it to someone else, if you dont report it there is more of a chance of him coming to you then to as if it wasd reported, i dont want to scare you or be bossy, but you reralloy must do it as bad as it may be. for your sake and other peoples.

naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 do my parents have to know if i report it? because i really hate my parents. and i definitely don't want it to happen to anyone else but i'm still really scared to come forward.

hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Do you have a friend you can go with? or a sibling? just for support when you do report it. it doesnt have to be your parents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mister1 Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 They don't need to know, it's compleatly confidential when you call those lines, they can't tell ANYONE about it. I agree with everyone else, at the very least you should call the kids help line and take it from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 if i go to the hospital to check that i don't have an STI and all of that, don't they have to tell my parents because i'm not 16? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mister1 Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 no I'm pretty sure that doctors confidentiality comes in here, but if you're worried about that perhaps you should just call a help line first and tell them for the time being you want to remain anonomous they should still talk you through the issue and you can work out from there where you want to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 for me talking about things makes issues worst! i once saw a man hanging from a tree dead and i was fine for the first couple of days but when my school arranged for a concellor it all got worse and i was having nightmares and all of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 By bottling it up, it stays with you for longer, . But by talking about it now it may hurt now and you may get nightmares now, but in the long run it will be better. they are professionals, talk to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 I really hate talking to those people though! The only person that I could have been able to tell passed away last week..he wast bestest closest friend, and now he is gone. now there is no one in my life! and i really don't like the help lines.

Mr Mister1 Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I don't know if it helps or not but you can talk to one of us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2rublueeyes21 Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I agree with the other posters...get help NOW. You need it. Please do this for yourself. okay? Why can't you go to your parents? I'm sure they would help you find professional help. Right? But even not, you need to get help on your own...now. God bless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 i can't go to my parents because we don't talk. my dad abuses me and my mum is an alcoholic so when you talk to her it goes in one ear and out the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mister1 Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 I'm always a bit nervous with these things because I'm not profesional so I may end up saying the wrong things. But you can say all you want to say on here, at least you'll get to talk to someone about it, which is a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 but that's the thing.. i can't say all i want to say! i'll sound like a dick head and you'll all just stop replying and just shrug it off like an attempt for attention! i have so much on my chest that i just can't talk about! it's just really confusing and it's hard for me talk about them, it brings up old memories that i'd rather forget.

hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 just try the helpline and if you dont like it you can always hang up. do you have a family doctor maybe. The kids helpline has councellors online, so if you cant tell them on the phone just type ot to them and they will have no idea who you are The website is link removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Just say what you want to, i promise i will listen and try to help. i want to help you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 it's all pathetic stuff.. like how I'm useless and no one needs me here.. and no one loves me..and then being raped has just made me believe that even more. it makes me feel so vulnerable. now it's happened once. what's there to stop it from happening again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungryhippo Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 if you report it, it wont happen again, it wasnt your fault that it happened. something bad just happened to you that you couldnt control, it doesnt mean that your useless. Noone is useless, you have a right to be loved and be happy. You are going through a tough time now, but I promise it will get better.

naecha Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 if i report it about the one guy well then there are still other sick men out there who may find out how vulnerable i am and then find me and rape me again because there is nothing i can do to stop it.
