Resources for Rape Victim?

Question

September 2016, just over six months ago I was sexually assaulted by someone I had just met at a party.

This January, I survived a physical violent attack from my ex-boyfriend, who bit me and choked me. He was a schizophrenic who had no reason for this and no recollection to this day of the event.

I can't seem to get back onto my feet. I live every day wondering what the old me would have felt at the moment or how a happy person would act. I want to be normal, I refuse to let these leeches suck the livihood and vigor from my life. I refuse to let their weakness be detrimental to my happiness. I refuse to be damaged by the pestilent venom that oozes from their pores.

I can't afford to see a therapist, what free resources are there for rape and physical assault survivors?

Answer

It really depends on where you are. I could give you direct resources for my city, but not nationwide. Try searching rape crisis centers and community mental health with your location info. Many will offer free or sliding scale payment options.

I believe there's also a sexual assault support room on here where you'll get better responses than in CC.
