Regrouping

I’m not really sure how one goes about recovering from being raped. My hope is that there is a recovery process but I’m not sure what it is. I’m not one to attend a support group; I’ve never gotten much out of those things. Everyone else’s problems seem so much worse than my own. I feel like I just need to get through this on my own.

My biggest fear is that no one will be able to love me again. Can I ever trust a man again? Can I bear to have a man touch me ever again? The thought repulses me at the moment.

I feel like I should be doing something but I can’t think what it is. It’s like living in a constant state of confusion. I am barely able to function; I just sit and stare a lot. Answering an E-mail takes a lot of concentration and words don’t come out any easier typing them than thinking them or speaking them.

I just want to be me again. God help me.
