Under Construction - MHWA Retreat

I agree with Angela. Rape is never anyone’s fault but the rapist. Never. I know it’s hard to forgive yourself, I really do. But, think about the compassion you now have for other rape survivors and try to apply that to yourself. You deserve it. Maybe think of it like you were walking outside, speaking on your phone, and someone came up, took he phone, and ran off. You wouldnt blame yourself for making a phone call. So don’t blame yourself for this.

I hope you are able to forgive yourself
