I think its time for me to open up. I want to tell my mom but I don’t know how to. I was about 14 when I was rapped. I thought she was my friend, but I guess wrong. She said that if I didn’t let her, she would kill me. I was scared for my life that I let it happen. I feel like it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have let it happen. I would go into detail on how it happen, but I don’t think anyone wants to read about that. I feel like if I tell my mom she might blame herself since it happened in our house. I haven’t told anybody except for my best friend. I didn’t tell anyone because I didn’t want a pity party and i still don’t, i just need to get it off my chest. Saying I was raped doesn’t really phase me, like I know it happened I just don’t feel like I need to cry over it anymore.

I was molested as a kid and have no idea on how to tell your mom. I’m afraid mine will blame herself as well. But these anonymous sites help in a way. I can tell someone without really letting anyone else get hurt by this really fucked up event.
FallenAngle21299,
I won’t claim to know how your mother will feel, but I can assure you that what happened to you was definitely not your fault. Whether or not you open up to anyone in your life is your decision and I feel you are the best judge of whether or not that is the best choice.
If you do decide to tell your mother, I think it’s important for you to emphasize to her that you don’t blame her and that she shouldn’t feel guilty. Perhaps tell her that the reason you are opening up to her is because you felt the need to let her know about this incident for your own state of mind. Best of luck.

Open up….maybe writing about it will help you get it off your chest even more….if people don’t wanna read it then they don’t have to but some people will and then if someone can relate maybe they’ll be able to help you
