She did not tell anyone for many years. However she did began to drink heavily later down the road she began to do drugs she did manage to finish highschool and started college after her first semester. her life caught up to her and she crashed. dropped out of school still nobody knew what was wrong with her and she finally confessed to her mom. Her mom's least concern was over the drinking or the lying of course they were disappointed. But as her mom said that was a teenage response , sometimes teenagers drink and go place's they should not go but that doesn't mean they should be raped for lack of judgement. This child became unable to cope with anything she had buried this blame and guilt deep inside her mind. Disobeying, drinking, being raped, and trying to hide her feelings. I would see her and I wondered how her parents could stand seeing her in that kind of mental anguish. damn gina you will have to deal with all of your feelings sooner or later, please do not compound the problems by keeping it inside for years. Which ever parent you are most comfortable with, please tell them or another relative, you can not deal with this alone.
