Ummm well, I actually typed this out and then the computer crashed, so this time it'll be brief lol I joined this site, because I need help, and need people to talk to and understand my questions, maybe give me some answers? In December, I was date raped by a close friend. I still blame myself, because there was alcohol involved, and I feel like maybe I could remember more if I hadn't of had anything...but then again, he wouldn't have slipped me anything if I had stayed sober. I just don't remember all that happened, except for when i started drinking, and lately I have been feeling down and cannot sleep. LOL I even went and saw The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (because I looooooooved the books! and i'm 18), but certain scenes REALLY bothered me. idk why. I feel like maybe he did something, and the movie triggered something in my memory. I'm not really sure. I just want some friends on here, and I would love some guidance in what to do. Obviously it's too late to get checked for drugs and such...but I need ideas. :/

Help









I want to let you know that alcohol was not involved in my assault, yet at the same time I feel like I could have done something to prevent it, and yes I have trouble remembering parts of it also.
As for the movie, cannot help you there, I 100% refuse to see it, but applaud you for doing so, you must be incredibly strong!
As for being tested for drugs and such, my assault happened nearly eight years ago and I just now spoke to a to a doctor about what happened. She was still able to test me for STDs and its been close to eight years.
