I was raped by a close friend 5-6 months ago. it’s affected me a lot mostly in my relationship. I broke up with my gf abruptly without telling about the rape. we stayed friends and now we’re considering trying to date again. I’ve told her of my diagnosis and given her a vague description of what happened. I don’t know what to do. any advice?

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

I have read a book or two recently. They are really good on identifying why you respond the way you do. You then can take this knowledge about yourself and give 100% into any relationship. 1. The body keeps the score, 2. What happened to you. Relationships are difficult and then slap on PTSD and it makes it more challenging. Maybe this will help. Just a thought!!!
