Ive just been reading this thread and many of the posts have made me cry. I was raped by my then bf 14 yr old brother while my bf held me down,when I was 18 and it took me over 20 years to even tell my sister. I finally got councelling for it last year, 23 years after it happened, no I didnt report it and he got away with it. For many years I hid it and the experience was killing me inside.
I was left with the added trauma of an unwanted pregnancy which ended in an abortion at 18 weeks as I tried to hide it, to this day my parents think I was just a stupid slut getting herself pregnant. I was lucky to get pregnant once when I was married but when I couldnt have anymore, tests showed that the abortion had caused so much scarring I was lucky to get pregnant at all. I have a wonderful son but even now the fact he (the rapist) has permantly damaged me hurts so much.
Im getting better now, the councelling has helped but Iwish there had been somewhere like this available for me all those years ago. so I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread and if I can ever help with anything then just let me know xxx
