Hello all. Let me first say to other rape survivors reading this, I'm so sorry this happened to you. These kinds of things should never happen and I thought I was "Cured". Truth is I was raped 5 years ago and just within the last week I've lost a few pounds, along with my appetite, I'm even afraid of the dark. i realized that the memories are still there along with the ever so slight fear of "running into" my attacker, who was arrested, charged and imprisoned but due to a plea bargain, only got 3 yrs(1 &1/2 for good behavior).
I've moved on, met my mr. wonderful and have 2 kids so why is this coming back now? That's my question. Again I thought I was "cured". I got a book called THE RAPE RECOVEREY HANDBOOK by Aphrodite Matsakis,PH.D. My hubby saw it and questioned me on it (nicely). I had told him about it very early in our relationship and he'd accepted it butr why was I just now suddenly getting a book about that? I told him I'd been having problems with the memories and what nots and he was fine. I told you he was my mr. wonderful.:)
But anyways, I truly am distressed about this cananyone offer advice?
