I know how hard that is. I was molested when I was 14-16 by a roommate who lived with my family. He convinced me that he loved me and we were destined to be together forever. When I finally told my mother, she wanted to keep it a secret and for 5 years, I never spoke of the incident- not even telling my Dad what had happened. It wasn't until reading in the paper that he had sexually assaulted another girl in a different state that I came forward and pressed charges. I had to go out to California to testify back in 2012 and he pled no contest this September to the charges I filed here and is about to be sentenced this month. The memories of what happened between he and I still come up and haunt me- especially with all this coming to light. Be strong, you can make it through this. I know one thing that really helped me through the guilt and shame was a crisis center here in town. Is there anything like that in your area that you could go to for help? Even of you don't press charges or do anything the comfort of dealing with people who understand what you're going through can be extremely helpful.
