If you live in the United States or Canada pick up the phone and call 911. Help will be sent to you. You have done nothing wrong and the help sent to you will protect you and get you the help you need.
Afraid to use the phone in the house. If you don't have a cell phone. Go to the nearest Fire or Police station. These are safe havens for children. Tell the people on duty what you have written to us and they will help you. You can also go to any Hospital Emergency Room and ask for help.
Do not be afraid of any of these people. The police, firefighter, doctors or nurses will take care of you. No one will blame you as you are a victim. Please go to one of these places and ask for help or call 911 or the emergency number for where you live.
If you go to a fire station that is not manned. On the front of the building will be a call box that is connected directly to the fire dispatcher. Use that phone to ask for help. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

Yes, You did the right thing by telling someone. It's not stupid at all to vent out how you feel about someone who violated you. You are a victim of sexual abuse and you have the right to be safe just like everyone else. I would recommend talking to a school guidance and let them know what happened and your worries.

But, you really should try talking to your counsellor because they can provide you with a ton of options for you to find support to get through this. They don't have to tell your parents if you ask them not to. And if you are to shy, try asking the teacher you confided in for some help as to what you can do. The most important thing is that you stay strong and remember that this doesn't have to control your life. There are a ton of support groups and people out there that you can rely on to get you through the day. You are a strong lady and none of what happened is your fault. You sound extremely brave by talking to someone about this, and that's one of the hardest steps that you've overcome.
