I recently seen a tv show law n order which i love oliva the detective went under cover to a prison and was almost raped.
I was raped three times and just watching that episode brought back my memories does it ever get easier? I just feel helpless and alone since i watched it

Did you get checked for pregnancy, STDs, etc? You really need to get this stuff documented because if you ever wanted to sue, it'd be extremely difficult to win with no evidence.
But that's besides the point right now. You need to seek therapy. Things don't get easier until you get the help that you need. The sooner you see a professional therapist, the sooner you can come to terms with what has happened and move on with your life in a positive way. Leaving this alone and not doing anything about it will only make it worse. It will deeply affect your relationships with people, men, and it could completely ruin your sexual experiences in the future. Make sure you get yourself some therapy.
And if you happen to ever be raped again (let's hope not), make sure you get yourself checked at a doctor and that you contact 911! Rape is a serious matter that shouldn't be left alone. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]

Therapy helps smooth things out a bit, but unless you're willing to move on, its not going to help. its been almost two years and no therapy and I'm still looney from all of that shit downrange. there's people who can help you get through this, but it requires effort on your part.

im sure you understand that you cant turn back the clock to go back in time,you cant bring back what you lost but what you can do is live your life to the fullest protecting that girl inside you that was hurt and traumatised.you are your own protector and now need to live for the future not the past.its easier said than done but you need to believe that now that its happened your going to work your way so that it doesnt happen to you or anyone else.
im really sorry and if you ever want to talk email me sia.d.sus@hotmail.com
