Rape is the worst thing that can happen to a woman/ girl. It is a violation of your body, and you will remember it for the rest of your life. talking about it with people that care about you is the best thing to do because it will make you feel comforted and safe. do not take it lightly rape is awful. it is considered a federal crime so whoever this person is, they should be in jail. Usually with so called “rapists” they have what some call a “raping spree”, this means that they rape lots of girls, and my guess is this guy has raped more girls than just you. You should really talk it over with your parents, and you shouldnt feel awkward about it because the whole situation was out of your control. It is not like you are sleeping around with some one, it was all agianst your will. After you talk it over with your parents you should explore your options as far as having a baby goes.

I hope I helped :)

Ok, you need to get checked out. You can take a test to find out if your pregnant, but what if you’ve got an STD? Some of them are symptomless for months, or years… Some of them are deadly… I know your parents are going through a lot. It must be tough seeing them in so much conflict and pain. But they’re your parents. They chose to have a baby. They will be able to handle it. You’re not supposed to be taking care of them, they’re supposed to be taking care of you. So, for the sake of your health, you need to tell them to make sure everything is ok. And for the sake of your mental health (which to me is just as important if not more), you should tell them…

There’s this site, it has hotlines, but the great thing about it is that it also has an online chat… http://www.rainn.org/ talk to them. They wont be able to tell your parents, but they’re there if you need to talk…

Answer #3

You absolutely can’t tell your parents? That’s like saying “Solve the problem without really solving it.” or… “This parachute works but I’m not going to use it.” as if you can take care of this yourself! If you aren’t comfortable with telling your parents, tell your friends. Your sister, brother, boyfriend, girlfriend, aunt… Basically tell people you trust and eventually you’ll work up the courage to tell you’re parents. I’ll give you the blunt truth, not telling your parents could lead to your death. What you need is support from those who love you. You’ll feel MUCH better once it’s not a secret anymore. And going to the police could save other girls from being raped. The most mature and healthy thing you can do now is to blab it. Blab to the people, because in this case, freedom of speech has never been more important.

Answer #4

Have you started your period? If you dont have your period the next time your supposed to theres a good chance. Girl, I know its the thing you least want to do right now, but you NEED to tell your mom and if your worrried that she’ll freak tell your dad. Do you know who raped you? If so girl you better hustle to the police, or at least tell an older sister or brother. It may not seem like that big of a deal butthatsa big thing sorry if I didn’t help but thatsthe best you can do, you have to tell someone.

Answer #5

you can’t keep this to yourself…you need to tell an adult you can talk to so they can help you…you should have to deal with a rape or a pregnancy alone…why didn’t tell police or something? I not sure what state you are from but some state allow what is a morning after pill to rape victims who are treated in the emergency room…planned parenthood may also be able to help you…you should really consider telling at least one of your parents I’m sure what ever they are going thru would take the back burner to help and comfort their daughter.
