*trigger warning- rape and injury*
I emailed my therapist a lot more details a few days ago about when I was really horrendously attacked and raped when I was a child. We’ve spoke about it a little bit, but I didn’t tell anyone about the attack at the time.
It was really really difficult to type and even harder to actually talk about.
He said something that really upset me. I am sorry if this upsets anyone here because it did really upset me
While we were talking he said something along the lines of “that must of been really awful and painful being raped by grown men when you were so young, not just the emotional stuff, but I bet it caused quite a lot of damage there”, this comment has made me feel like repulsive damaged goods. I’m pretty sure he’s implying about my genitals. I never thought about that before. As far as I’m concerned it’s all okay down there. It’s made me feel so embarrassed. I couldn’t even answer, I just said “I hate them so much”. It’s made me feel so inadequate.
Am I over reacting or would you be upset?
