Hey,

I'm so glad that you have someone that you can talk to about this. What you have been put through is such a difficult situation; try to understand that it's hard to give advice to someone who is in so much pain. Your friend is doing all she can do; listen. Perhaps you could talk to an adult in your life, if you're looking for more advice on the situation. An adult, such as a teacher, family member, or religious leader, could advise you on seeking couseling, pressing charges, and other forms of gaining closure. I know these all may seem like scary ideas right now, but it could help you so much in the long run. Don't worry about that right now, though; just focus on talking about these things with someone you trust, getting them out of you. This darkness will eat away at you, but talking about it can prevent this.


You'll never be alone. You will always have your loved ones, even if they aren't entirely sure of what's going on. Of course, you'll always have us here at TeenHelp, as well.

Again, if you ever want to talk to me, you can send me a PM or VM.

"For the first time
in a long time,
I can say that I wanna try.
I feel helpless for the most part,
but I'm learning to open my eyes.
And the sad truth of the matter is,
I'll never get over it,
but I'm gonna try
to get better and overcome each moment
in my own way"
