New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
Last year was my freshman year of college.
I was 18 and I was dating this guy from
my work. After work we would come to my
dorm and watch movies. We just watched
movies. One night we started kissing, and
it started to get kind of heavy so I told
him that I did not want to have sex. He
said ok fine. We kept kissing and we
ended up on the floor. He had my arms
pinned behind me and he started to try to
undo my pants. I told him no but he
didn't stop and he raped me. He thought I
was kidding and we were just playing
around. I didn't tell anyone about the
rape, mostly b/c I knew that if I hadn't
have been so dumb as to trust him it never
would have happened. In the next few
weeks I started to feel different, I felt
like something was wrong. I had to
urinate alot, and my eating habits
changed. I knew he hadn't used a condem
but I prayed it would be okay. I felt
tired alot and missed my period. I
thought that maybe if I did extra
strenuous activities all of this would
stop and it would just go away. I know
that I am a horrible person for doing that
but the symptoms increased and after about
8 weeks I decided to go get tested that
sat. And it was a tues. On wed. I
started to cramp and I was like thank
goodness! My period is here! But the
cramps were not normal, they made me
double over in pain and it just got worse
and worse. I didn't know what was
happening. I went to the bathroom and
passed clumps of tissue that I hoped was
just period gunk or something but deep
down I knew that I had miscarried. Having
this whole ordeal bottled up in side of me
for a year is so hard. It is eating away
at me. I just wanted to tell someone I am
just feeling alone and I feel guilty
because I feel like I had something to do
with the death of my child. I don't know
what to do......
