News of Rape Trauma

I was raped at a large party by someone I've never met a few years ago, and I got pregnant. Drs always told me I could never have a baby, so it was kind of a miracle that I got pregnant. I kept the baby, and I don't seem to associate him with what happened at all. The only problem is that I'm terrified of men that I don't know. I want to get my ...

Okay, I'll try to keep this short.


I am not the type to post in forums like this (this is the first time, actually), but I have some issues with PTSD due to history of abuse and maybe someone has some advice. It's been several incidents over many years, since I was 15. I'm in my early 30's now.

Last spring, the plan was to travel to the US to meet my boyfriend, but then ...

I need some help dealing with this, and am confused on what I should do. Recently my boyfriend and I had been fighting a lot, due to the fact that he always lies to me and I found out he had a profile up on match.com. I have always been really close with his family, especially his older brother, so anytime we would fight I would usually talk to him.
Well, this past Wednesday night ...

I've been raped a few times, by drug dealers and ex's and only recently I tried to do something about it because of the encouragement of an amazing friend. I know it's had an impact on me, despite trying to deny it. I've some amazing guy friends, my best friend is a guy.

Hi, My name is Rebekah and I stumbled across this website during a pretty hardcore freak out a few nights ago. I was reading the advice given and thought that maybe just maybe someone might have a constructive idea for me. I am currently engaged to one of the most wonderful men in the history of the human race and he is incredibly kind and patient, but i am not sure how to help my ...

I was raped when I was 17 years of age and at the time I found it really hard to function after the rape. I kept having nightmares in the middle of the night, I'd have anxiety attacks, and I started binge eating. I also had times where I felt like things around me weren't real. I started to distrust guys alot. I'm 22 years old now and since then I have had other mental ...

My first time posting here.
Several months ago I was raped by my then girlfriend, required stitches. I am not seeking legal action for several reasons, not wanting to out myself (small community in the deep south) and having gone thru this in college and not being believed top the list. However I successfully got a restraining order against her and she has gone to jail several times for violating it. Every time she violates ...

I was raped repeatedly 2 years ago. It never really bothered me until about 1 year ago. Honestly, I was in a heavy amount of denial. But since I faced that I was raped, I went through the stages of depression, anxiety, anger, and then a mix of them. After I went through the mixed stage, I started having very frequent flashbacks. I throw my head back, pull out my hair, start yelling and instantly ...
