It struck such a chord with you for obvious reasons, but one reason is that you say you blame yourself for the assault, too. But, see, by your anger, you know you are not to blame. You know what happened and what it really was.

I had a similar sexual assault that I could blame myself for, too. But I just put it all out of my mind. That was my way of handling it. It caused me more problems later down the road.

Feeling that anger is good. It'll help you heal.
