Q: Planning deaths
asked by: fireflies on February 8th, 2009

I was raped two weeks ago. And almost everyone has turned their backs on me. My boyfriend is about to leave me. My best friend has walked away. I went to a party, got wasted and some jerk raped me. And everyone is telling me its my fault because I never listened to anyone (I was warned many times) and its my fault that I was put in that situation. And now, I am alone. And hurt and all I want to do is die.

I've been planning out my deaths for the past few weeks. Everyone who was there at the party is out to destroy me, spread horrible words about me. I feel worthless and vulnerable. I never want to go back to school.

Many times I've stopped myself because I don't want to give up. But when the world is against you, its hard not to give up..

my 2 best friends were raped one of them was abused by her mother and accuessed her of lieing about the rape and the man was not caught in her case and she had to move here and the other was date raped at a party so i understand where your coming from. they keep going its hard but the keep going and they tell me it gets better over time but it never will be gone.

you need to see a doctor and even if you were underage drinking face him and press charges or you might blame yourself the rest of your life and it is not your falt please see a doc.

Hi,

Firstly i want to say im so sorry for what you have gone through. Please please know though what has happened was not your fault.
Sometimes people close to you might not know how to act and it can seem like they are turning their backs on you. Although you may feel you dont need to reassure them and tell them you are ok to talk about it and you want their support.
Its only natural to feel depressed after a traumatic event but ending things should never be an option, you should never think thatand although you might not think it now, things will get better. You need to report this to the Police, it may seem scary but its a huge first step that will help you to deal with things. They should be able to provide you with a councillor who will be trained to discuss whats happened and how you can go forward.
Please please seek professional help and never blame yourself.

Kate

Hey
I too am sorry you have experienced it, I'm new here and this is actually my first post, but I wanted to say having been a victim of rape and actually seen it in progress it can take a toll on you. You posted on here because you are hanging on and I advise you just on that to go seek professional help if you are thinking about hurting yourself, your mental and physical health comes first then what others percieve about you, i've found that Ive often had to "wing" it on just trying to survive because this isnt me I do not want to kill myself, I want to be happy and I sought help and am now in a better postion then I was some time ago. Things will be better, days will be better, and you can certainly look for a better tommorrow-

Police?
After this happened please tell me that you went straight to the police! If you didn't that's not good GO NOW! Also you should have gone to the hospital so they could give you a rape kit (only effective if you go right after!). RAPE is never okay and I have been where you are YOU MUST do something now before it is too late. There are statues of limitation on crimes such as rape.

These "friends" who turned their backs on you are not worth killing yourself over it will not prove anything to them you like you think it will. I know I felt the same way like "I'll show them" and " Then maybe they will believe me" NO they will just go on living and yes possibly some of them will be sad about it but you will hurt the people who truly do care about you. And those are the people who matter! I battle with and have since I was 11. I was called a liar by my own mother so I know your pain. School is rough for everyone and kids can be so mean because they want so badly to not stand out against the crowd for fear of them treating them the exact way they are treating you.

Seek counseling, talk to your parents see what if any options you have as far as changing schools.

You let the rapist win if you give up! You are worth something don't let a bunch of retarded kids ruin your future.

Hun, no matter how blind you were It Still Wasn't your fault! No man has the right to take advantage of a woman. No woman asks for it. btw You've got lousy friends! You're boyfriend will come back in time. If he doesn't then he's a real a hole and you don't want a guy like that anyway.
I'm really sorry you've gone through this. have you told your parents. try and find someone to talk to about this that you're close with. then get some professional help.
you'll be okay Smile just take things slow for a while and please hun don't ever think about taking your life over this. It's just not worth it. Think of what it would do to your loved ones. it's okay to be sad. It's ok to be mad. It's all part of the healing process. you'll get there hun you'll be okay xo
