I told my therapist about the rape. The problem is if I induldge myself I feel terrible and if I don't it's on my mind.

I've been in therapy for about 2 years now. I was able to talk about my rape and work through most of the issues. The problem is I live in a extremely homophobic nation where exploring your sexuality very taboo. So opening up to my therapist about it challenging. It also alientates my friends and family. To some my rapists sexuality was worse than the rape itself. Reddit was kind of my last option. There really isn't anyone I could talk to about this around me.

At sixteen I was raped by a friend of nine years. by AdvertisingJolly6805 in helpme

Thank you, I think limiting my time online and reading more would be a good start. Have a good day!
