It was after I ended things with him that I realised I have the power to heal myself. When I ended things with him he said I deserved to be raped.
I have become very selfish since then, I hope my family and friends can forgive me in the future.
I am from the countryside, so there are no rape survivors groups in my area. The good news is that I resumed my college studies last month. So hopefully that's a step forward.

What a nasty, horrific thing to say. I hope karma to him is swift and harsh.
Furthermore, please don't feel bad about your behavior Hope...bless your heart, you've endured one of the worst and most traumatic things a person can endure. Your family, not you, would be callous to not understand you not being "you" right now.
Please know you're in my prayers Hope. I hope things improve for you soon.
Many hugs,
Harley
