is it right for me to feel like this

[Unregistered]

after reading through all the threads. i noticed that although i have a lot in common with all the other Rape victims.
i also noticed something else.
Many talk about not being about to perform sexual acts. but Since the rape (over a year ago now) i have had more sexual partners than before it.
Many not with Guys i trust and have been nothing more than One night stands.
I just feel like being violated once was hard enough to bear. And i dont think i could go through that ordeal again. Its Easier to say yes.
is it wrong for me to feel like this
am i just being a slut?

Hi

It is very common for survivors of rape to seek casual sex. You are trying to persuade yourself that sex can be normal.

You don't say whether you have reported this to the police, or whether you have been to your GP. It is not too late to go to the police, and you should definitely contact your GP, who will be able to refer you to a specialist counsellor. Alternatively you can contact www.rapecrisis.org.uk ar Victim Support www.victimsupport.org.uk. Both will be able to offer you confidential advice and guidance.

I am sorry I can't offer you further practial advice, but please rest assured that both of the above organisations will be extremely gentle, caring and understanding. Good luck.
