Group counseling with other sexual assault victims? And I’m scared of potential repercussions with talking about what happened in the fall because we were both intoxicated and minor intoxication is illegal

Just talk to a therapy bc anytime I question group counseling. They say it’s easier to talk to other ppl who went through the same.

Uh well the first time i basically forgot it happened until i remembered it about a year ago! Apparently SA victims can force themselves to forget certain memories. The first time it was an older kid and I mean I was literally just a kid at that time. My second time or atleast a moment I can recall was at summer camp when I was maybe ten on the playground I didn’t really know what I was supposed to do and he told me he liked me so I ‘assumed’ it was okay. My second time was also done by a much

Older kid. My many consecutive times after that was in middle school after I transferred schools. I was bullied from the first day, had no friends, etc so there was no one for me to talk to because at my middle school they normalized touching girls inappropriately. Teachers would just say not to do that without any real repercussions

There was no one for me to go to. I’m the oldest of ten siblings and both of my parents work stressful jobs. After transferring schools I started struggling with depression aswell. Fast forward to fall semester, I thought I could trust someone I thought was my friend because we had known each other since August and hung out countless times. For Christ sake I was literally actively being pursued by his cousin but we are having some drinks in his room celebrating finals and he starts to groped me

I communicated with him that he was drunk and that this wasn’t okay and that I called his cousin to take care of him. He proceeded to force me to go to the bathroom with him(he was an athlete before college and this was prior to me starting to go to the gym) in attempts to get me to do things with him but I was still trying to be respectful

He tried forcing me onto the bed and tried taking my clothes shirt and bottom off multiple times. Sure it probably is my fault because I was too trusting but I just don’t want to be afraid of sex anymore dang

I just don’t want to be afraid of sex anymore. I’m afraid of judgment, afraid to tell them what’s happened to me. I told my ex about it and he immediately started telling me I lied to him about being a virgin. I’m just scared that if I get vulnerable for someone they’ll be disgusted by me or just use me and leave . sorry for dumping all this on you i needed to let it out
