** trigger warning**
So I haven't spoken to a whole lot of people about this yet just the authorities and the important people who were not involved, but yesterday morning I was sexually assaulted while I was sleeping and woke to my abuser still touching me(knew him for 2 hours prior to the assault) I haven't had the chance to speak to a counselor yet (booked in for tomorrow) and I really am not sure how I feel apart from dirty guilty confused and upset I'm really worried about this taking over my life I already suffer with PPD which is currently untreated (been to counselling and tried three different meds nothing worked) I don't want to feel like a victim forever but I'm sure this will be a bad memory for life
I'm not sure what exactly I'm asking I just want to know how other victims got past this or if they ever did what helped and what didn't or things like that 😪

Oh hun :( I am so sorry to hear this. That would have been so hard on you. I hope you find something that helps you heal xx
I too am currently going through the same however have known the abuser for 12 months before it occured. Its a long hard emotional roller coaster. Lots of counselling and support from those you love and trust will help. Allow your self time to process what has occured and allow yourself time to heal. Dont be affraid to reach out.
